Hi There, I'm trying to make sense out of a polynomial function from excel, it gives me following: y = 2E-18x^6 - 2E-14x^5 + 1E-10x^4 - 2E-07x^3 + 0.0002x^2 - 0.0373x + 70.098 and i want to translate this into (normal math) where x is numbers from 0 - 4069. following doesnt' seem to be right: 2/10^18*x^6 - 2/10^14*x^5+1/10^10*x&3+0.0002*x^2-0.0373*x+70.098 But I don't see my mistake - can someone help me please? Thank you!
