I'm attempting to reclaim lost knowledge... hopefully this works. I would like to take a data set I have x,y values and project the trend beyond the (10) values I currently have. For example, I have a graph with (10) values for x and y, but would like to graph the trend created by values 1-10 to values 11-15.
I recall learning how to derive an equation to represent the data set but how no idea how I used to to it. Need some help on this one. I'm sure there are other ways to do this that I haven't thought of and wouldn't mind suggestions.
PS, I know I could create a simple linear equation by eyeballing the best fitting slope, but would like to be more accurate as the trend is not always linear.
