2013-12-04 |
 |
From Kevin: How do I find the curve, algebraically on paper, for f(x)= a+b*lnx with data points
(6,1303) (9,1639). I can do it with LnReg on a calculator but I want to know how
to get the same results or close to the same results by working it out on paper.
When I run it through the LnReg on the calculator I get, f(x)=181.792+828.678 Ln x.
