Default Trendline Percent

The percentage increase in Y depends on your X values.
=2.1973*(X_new-X_old)/(2.1973*X_old + 3211.2) and format as percentage.

It should be a small increase of say 2% or so. Anyways, how would I
convert those equations to a percent?

Thanks.

With an Rē value that low, I would not trust any derived data.

I created a chart with a trendline. How can I figure out the
percent of increase from the formula generated from trendline?

y = 2.1973x + 3211.2
Rē = 0.0046

Thanks!
