k Quadratic/Cubic/Quartic Regression Graph
A quadratic/cubic/quartic regression graph represents connection of the data points of a
scatter diagram. It uses the method of least squares to draw a curve that passes close to as
many data points as possible. The formula that represents this is quadratic/cubic/quartic
regression.
Ex. Quadratic regression

Quadratic regression
Model formula ..... y = ax
2
+ bx + c
a .............
regression second coefficient
b ............. regression first coefficient
c ............. regression constant term (intercept)
Cubic regression
Model formula ..... y = ax
3
+ bx
2
+ cx + d
a .............
regression third coefficient
b ............. regression second coefficient
c ............. regression first coefficient
d ............. regression constant term (intercept)
Quartic regression
Model formula ..... y = ax
