k Med-Med Graph When it is suspected that there are a number of extreme values, a Med-Med graph can be used in place of the least squares method. This is similar to linear regression, but it minimizes the effects of extreme values. 1(CALC)3(Med) 6(DRAW) The following is the Med-Med graph model formula. y = ax + b a Med-Med graph slope b Med-Med graph y-intercept k Quadratic/Cubic/Quartic Regression Graph A quadratic/cubic/quartic regression graph represents connection of the data points of a scatter diagram. It uses the method of least squares to draw a curve that passes close to as many data points as possible. The formula that represents this is quadratic/cubic/quartic regression. Ex.
