Default polynomial trendline

How can I calculate from two series of values (x and y) entered in an Excel
table the polynomial trendline equation.This without putting it into a graph.
I want to use the equation to calculate specific points after.

Default polynomial trendline

You can calculate the polynomial coefficients with LINEST

Similarly, you can predict unknown values without the intermediate step of
obtaining the coefficients with TREND function.
