LINEST(Y,X,C,stats)Where Y is the set of y-values and X  is an optional set of x-values that in the relationship y = mx + b.

  is a logical value specifying whether to force the constant b to equal 0 and stats  are a logical value specifying whether to return additional regression statistics.


This function calculates the k-th largest value in a data set.


·    When there is  only one independent x-variable, then the slope and y-intercept values directly by using the following formulas:

Slope:
=INDEX(LINEST(Y,X),1)

Y-intercept:
=INDEX(LINEST(Y,X) 2)

·          The accuracy of the line is calculated by using LINEST.

Formulas:-


LINEST


Lets see an example,

LINEST(Y,X,C,Stats)

B             C

1             0

9             4

5             2

7             3

=LINEST(B2:B5,C2:C5,FALSE)

=LARGE(B2:C6,8) is 5
