To update others, after a few PM's here's where we are at:
1) These numbers are "breakdown voltages" vs. PVC/EPDM ratio at different salinities. I'm not sure what the salinity is referring to (I would guess the insulator/polymer is in contact with an aqueous salt solution, but not sure). If there are any electrical engineering types on the forum who would know how breakdown voltages are typically modeled, it would help us understand what to use for the regression function.
2) In the last PM, you indicated that you did not care what kind of function was used. So, in order to get things moving, let's start with the simplest function that comes immediately to mind -- a plane. y=m1*x1+m2*x2+b. You will need to become familiar with the LINEST() function, since chart trendlines cannot handle 3D data like this: https://support.office.com/en-us/art...a-fa7abf772b6d Note that example 3 specifically shows a multi-variable regression, so you should become familiar with how they did this example.
3) The LINEST() function needs to have your data arranged in a list rather than a table. This should look something like:
4) Enter the LINEST() function. Remember that this is an array function, so it needs to be committed with ctrl-shift-enter.
5) Evaluate regression to see if it is adequate.
This should give us a starting place.
