Drawing a Power Regression Graph (

y

=

a

·

x

b

)

Power regression can be used when

y

is proportional to the power of

x

. The normal power

regression formula is

y

=

a

·

x

b

. If we obtain the logarithms of both sides, we get ln(

y

) = ln(

a

)

+

b

· ln(

x

). Next, if we say that X = ln(

x

), Y = ln(

y

), and A = ln(

a

), the formula corresponds to

the linear regression formula Y = A +

X.
