Drawing a Logarithmic Regression Graph

Logarithmic regression expresses

y

as a logarithmic function of

x

. The normal logarithmic

regression formula is

y

=

a

+

b

· ln(

x

). If we say that X = ln(

x

), then this formula corresponds

to the linear regression formula

y

=

a

+

b

·X.
