Hey all,



Need to create an equation that will take a beginning value (in my case -6.85) and add .042 to it but, need it to do that 250 times!!



I am trying to create a graph that represents my regression that is: Y = a + bx where a= -6.85 and b= .042 and X= 250



I hope I am explaining this correctly.



Any help would be great, I know its late....TIA

=(-6.85+(0.042*250))



?



Or do you need 250 separate values?

I need it to add .042 to -6.85 250 times



i.e:

-6.85 + .042= -6.808 + .042= -6.766 + .042 = -6.724 + .042 = -6.682

ETA:  Like below?  250 completely separate values, inserted line graph based on those values.

Put -6.85 in block A1

Put .042 in block C1

Put =A1+$C$1 in block A2

grab the bottom right corner of block A2 and drag to A250

highlight data, click on insert tab => line chart

A251, actually.  He needs the starting point of -6.85 and then 250 changes as well.  I used a slightly clunkier method that didn't include the static cell reference symbols.  So long as his line chart(graph) references the 251 cell range as its data source, he should be fine.
