Trend Line constants as Excel Cell Values
I want to put the constants of a 2 degree polynomial trend line into Excel
Cells. Are there formula's to do this? Equation is Y = Ax(2) + Bx + C. I want the value of A,B and C in seperate cells. Can anyone suggest how this can be done? Thanks -- Ken |

Hi Ken,
Supposing your x-range is in A2:A10, and y-range in B2:B10, select a 3-column x 1-row area and enter the following formula and confirm with CTRL-SHIFT-ENTER. =LINEST(B2:B10,A2:A10^{0,1,2},0,) Regards, B.

How would this work for a Polynominal degree 6? X-range covers 52 points.

Hi Andrew,
Let's suppose that the x- and y- ranges are in A2:A53 and B2:B53 respectively. Select a 7 column x 1 row area, enter the following formula, and confirm with CTRL-SHIFT-ENTER. =LINEST(B2:B53,A2:A53^{0,1,2,3,4,5,6},0,) The formula will return the 7 coefficients, starting from the zeroth order and ending with the 6th order. If you want to have the coefficients shown starting from the 6th order and ending in the zeroth order, modify the formula as, =LINEST(B2:B53,A2:A53^{6,5,4,3,2,1,0},0,) Regards, B. R.

Very nice solution! Is there a way to present the resulting coefficients in
the same column as the data? Or, better yet, to predict the value of Y from a New X and known Xs and known Ys that fit well to a polynomial? "B.

To put all the coefficients in a column, use the TRANSPOSE function.
To get predicted Y values, use the TREND function. For this model, the syntax is =TREND(B2:B53,A2:A53^{0,1,2,3,4,5,6},prediction_x_ vals,0,) If you just want the predicted values for the original data, you can omit the third argument =TREND(B2:B53,A2:A53^{0,1,2,3,4,5,6},,0,) Jerry "gdors" wrote: Very nice solution!

If you are trying to solve for x knowing all the other terms, rearange the
equation: x^2+Bx/A +C-Y =0 to ax^2+bx+c=0 Then use the solution for the roots: (-b+-sqrt(b^2-4ac))/2a "Ken" wrote: I want to put the constants of a 2 degree polynomial trend line into Excel Cells.
