What a trend line shows

A trend line summarizes how two variables move together. Linear fits show steady change, exponential fits show multiplicative growth or decay, and polynomial fits capture bends in the pattern.

Why the staged workflow helps

Data tools benefit from deliberate updates. You can edit the table first, then calculate once, which keeps the graph, equation, and regression summary synchronized and easier to review.
