You should have in your calculator's stack the value of the matrix X and the
vector b, the fitted values of y are obtained from y = X⋅b, thus, just press *
to obtain: [5.63.., 8.25.., 5.03.., 8.23.., 9.45..].
Compare these fitted values with the original data as shown in the table
below:

Polynomial fitting
Consider the x-y data set {(x
to fit a polynomial or order p to this data set. In other words, we seek a fitting

In Chapter 10, we defined the Vandermonde matrix corresponding to a
vector x = [x
] . The Vandermonde matrix is similar to the matrix X

We can take advantage of the VANDERMONDE function to create the matrix
