However once, I have the formula then I can manipulate it.
I was hoping this would be the case, as I am not yet able to edit your sheet for you. I'm not sure what manipulation/edit you are having trouble with, so let's walk through the edits for ChemistB's formula in A64 (parts to change highlighted in red)
=INDEX(LINEST($H$63:$H$311,$G$63:$G$311^{1,2,3,4,5,6}),1,ROWS($A$62:$A62))
1) We will be using a 2nd order polynomial instead of a 6th order polynomial, so delete the ,3,4,5,6 from the exponentiation array =INDEX(LINEST($H$63:$H$311,$G$63:$G$311^{1,2}),1,ROWS($A$62:$A62))
2) We need the logarithm of the known_x argument, so nest the $G$63:$G$311 reference inside of a LOG() function =INDEX(LINEST($H$63:$H$311,LOG($G$63:$G$311)^{1,2}),1,ROWS($A$62:$A62))
3) We also need the logarithm of the known_y argument, so nest the $H$63:$H$311 inside of a LOG() function as well =INDEX(LINEST(LOG($H$63:$H$311),LOG($G$63:$G$311)^{1,2}),1,ROWS($A$62:$A62)). Our new formula is
4) copy into A65 and A66 to get all three parameters. Delete A67 to A70
5) Now we need a new formula in column I that is equivalent to our regression formula log(y)=A*log(x)^2+B*log(x)+C. From what (I assume) you know about logarithms, this is equivalent to y=10^(A*log(x)^2+B*log(x)+C), so let's enter this formula into I62 =10^($A$64*LOG(G62)^2+$A$65*LOG(G62)+$A$66). Copy/paste/fill into I63 to I311.
I assume that those are all edits you are capable of. Which edit do you have trouble with?
