TREND(y,x,x1,c)
- is the set of y values.
- is the set of x values.
- is the new x value.
- is the constant value.
Description
- This function calculating the trend line using the given set of and values.
- Trend line is the straight line which joins two or more points in the upward direction.
- It is calculating using the equation ,which is the simple equation for the straight line.
- In this equation is the independent variable, is the dependent variable, is the slope of the line and is the constant which is equal to when .
- In , is the set of y-values to find the linear trend, is the set of x- values to find the linear trend, is the set of new x-values for which the function calculates corresponding new y-values and is the constant.
- It is either TRUE or FALSE. If c value is TRUE or omitted, then it is calculated normally.
- If value is FALSE, then , and . Here is required. , and are optional.
- If value is omitted, then it is assumed to be the array{1,2,3..} which is the same size of . If value is omitted, then it is assumed to be the same size of .
- If both and are omitted, then they are assumed to be the array {1,2,3..} which is the same size of y.
- function is used for polynomial curve fitting by regressing against the same variable raised to different powers.
- When entering an array constant for an argument such as , use commas to separate values in the same row and semicolons to separate rows.
