So to fit a set of (x,y) data pairs to the curve y = abx, you simply enter your pairs as usual except, after you enter y, press the [2nd9 (- 1 keys. Also, whenever you calculate Li , , or El , press the 12nd9 E) keys (because el"k') = y). Example: Fit the following data to a curve described by the equation y = abx. Determine the values for "r," "a," and "b," and calculate the predicted y values at x = 9.2 and x = -2.6. 0.5 8.0 1.6 13.2 3.6 52.9 7.9 1008.0 8.7 2201.0 Solution: To enter the data, use the following keystrokes: (Mode: STAT) [2ndF) ET) .5 Kr,y)) 8 12nd9 In [DATA 1.6 If-T.413.2 tend F) In [DATA' 3.6 ((TA 52.9 Ficin In IDATAI 7.9 8.7 (x,y 1 008 2'201 pI2nadFnf In (DATA) DATA) Once the five data points are entered, you can calculate the desired regression values using the keystrokes below: 2ndF 2ndF E) 2nd E) (2nd F) EI I2rd9 IT) Result: 0.998657732 Result: 4.868338038 Result: 1.988330772 159 The correlation coefficient is 0.998... indicating that this curve is an excellent model for this data. Also from the above results, the equation for the curve is: y = 4.87 (1.99x) To calculate the predicted values for y at x = 9.2 and a = -2.6, press: 9.2 2nd P2r 1 2.6 +/- kniFj El 2nd e= Result: 2'713.164694 Result: 0.815286551 159
