Drawing a Exponential Regression Graph (

y

=

a

·

b

x

)

Exponential regression can be used when

y

is proportional to the exponential function of

x

.

The normal exponential regression formula in this case is

y

=

a

·

b

x

. If we take the natural

logarithms of both sides, we get ln(

y

) = ln(

a

) + (ln(

b

)) ·

x

. Next, if we say that Y = ln(

y

),

A = ln(

a

) and B = ln(

b

), the formula corresponds to the linear regression formula Y = A + B·

x

.

u ClassPad Operation
