Least-squares regression and covariance,riance between two variables, x and y, is given as follows: . .. It can be seen that this equation bears a striking resemblance to the equation for the variance of a variable. After all, a variance is simply the average squared value of a variable that has been expressed as a deviation from its mean.

Regression analysis with standardized variables,n of variable y on variable x is equal to the standardized regression coefficient for the regression of variable x on variable y such that: .These two standardized regression coefficients are equal to one another because the covariances in their numerators are the same and the variances in their denominators are both equal to one.
