Laura,
<< Statistics`NonlinearFit`
data = {{1.0, 1.0, .126}, {2.0, 1.0, .219},
{1.0, 2.0, .076}, {2.0, 2.0, .126}, {.1, .0, .186}};
NonlinearFit[data,
theta1 theta3 x1 / (1 + theta1 x1 + theta2 x2),
{x1, x2}, {theta1, theta2, theta3}]
BestFitParameters /. NonlinearRegress[data,
theta1 theta3 x1 / (1 + theta1 x1 + theta2 x2),
{x1, x2}, {theta1, theta2, theta3},
RegressionReport -> BestFitParameters]
Try the following code. It worked for me.
I think you did not have the data statement with numbers.
If trouble send me the code you used and I will
look at it.
