Transformations of Y and X in Simple Regression


We illustrate using JMP to do transformations of Y and X in simple regression with the data on Table 5-1 on Page 134 of your textbook.

Below is the data:

We go to the Fit Y by X platform:

We select Fit Transformed... from the triangle menu:

Below we select the logarithmic transformation of Y as this is what is done on Page 135 of your textbook. You could have selected any of the other transformation of Y and X given below. Note that these transformations include the reciprocal transformation of Y and X given on top of Page 137 of your text book.

Compare the results with those on Figure 5-5, Page 135 of your textbook.
