When performing simple linear regression by hand, the first step is to square the differences and sum them up. This summation is referred to as SSxx.

These differences are then multiplied together (the difference of X from its average with the difference of Y from its average) and summed up. This summation is known as SSxy.

SSxx represents the variance of the X variable and is a crucial component in calculating the slope of the regression line.

SSxy is indicative of the covariance between X and Y and is essential in deriving the slope of the regression line, which describes the relationship between the two variables.

Next, you need to calculate the average of your Y variable. This average will be used to determine the deviations of Y from its mean.
