Do I need to find an exact model? Or will a regression model do?

In this webinar, we will explore different scenarios that require finding exact polynomial, exponential, or sinusoidal models; how to find them; and how they compare to their regression counterparts. Presenters will also highlight how to use TI technology to successfully find regression equations to model data and plot the corresponding residuals.
