Using the same approach as was employed to derive Eqs. (17.15) and (17.16), derive the least-squares fit
Question:
Using the same approach as was employed to derive Eqs. (17.15) and (17.16), derive the least-squares fit of the following model:
y = α1x + α2x2 + e
That is, determine the coefficients that results in the least-squares fit for a second-order polynomial with a zero intercept. Test the approach by using it to fit the data from Prob. 17.26.
