In R draw two lines, with slopes double and half the value of the best fit line
- by D W
I have data with a best fit line draw. I need to draw two other lines. One needs to have double the slope and the other need to have half the slope. Later I will use the region to differentially color points outside it as per:

Example dataset:
## Dataset from http://www.apsnet.org/education/advancedplantpath/topics/RModules/doc1/04_Linear_regression.html
## Disease severity as a function of temperature
# Response variable, disease severity
diseasesev<-c(1.9,3.1,3.3,4.8,5.3,6.1,6.4,7.6,9.8,12.4)
# Predictor variable, (Centigrade)
temperature<-c(2,1,5,5,20,20,23,10,30,25)
## For convenience, the data may be formatted into a dataframe
severity <- as.data.frame(cbind(diseasesev,temperature))
## Fit a linear model for the data and summarize the output from function lm()
severity.lm <- lm(diseasesev~temperature,data=severity)
# Take a look at the data
plot(
diseasesev~temperature,
data=severity,
xlab="Temperature",
ylab="% Disease Severity",
pch=16,
pty="s",
xlim=c(0,30),
ylim=c(0,30)
)
title(main="Graph of % Disease Severity vs Temperature")
par(new=TRUE) # don't start a new plot
abline(severity.lm, col="blue")
