Performing Paired-variable Statistical Calculations

To perform the example operations in this section, fi rst select REG (

N5) as the

calculation mode.

A Regression Calculation Types

The REG Mode lets you perform the seven types of regression listed below. The fi gures in
the parentheses show the theoretical formulas.

• Linear

(

y

=

a

+

bx

)

• Quadratic

(

y

=

a

+

bx

+

cx

2

)

• Logarithmic

(

y

=

a

+

b

ln

x

)

e

Exponential

(

y

=

ae

bx

)

ab

Exponential

(

y

=

ab

x

)

• Power

(

y

=

ax

b

)

• Inverse

(

y

=

a

+

b

/

x

)

Each time you enter the REG Mode, you must select the type of regression calculation you
plan to perform.

Selecting the Regression Calculation Type

1. Press

N5(REG) to enter the REG Mode.

• This displays the initial regression calculation selection menu. The menu has two

screens, and you can use

d and e to navigate between them.

Note

You can switch to another regression calculation type from within the REG Mode, if you
want. Pressing

12(S-VAR) 3(TYPE) will display a menu screen like the one shown in

step 1 above. Perform the same operation as the above procedure to select the regression
calculation type you want.
