uLogarithmic, Exponential, Power, and Inverse
Regression
•Use the same key operations as linear regression to re-
call results for these types of regression.
• The following shows the regression formulas for each
type of regression.
uQuadratic Regression
• The regression formula for quadratic regression is:
y = A + Bx + Cx
2
.
• Example:
Perform quadratic regression to de-
termine the regression formula terms
for the data nearby. Next, use the
regression formula to estimate the
values for 
n (estimated value of y) for
xi = 16 and m (estimated value of x)
for 
yi = 20.
