Chris, I haven't seen anyone post a reply yet so thought I'd throw in my thoughts. I'm no R expert! When you talk about an exponential trend line are you refering to: 1) y=ax^b or 2) y=ae^(bx) If 1) then take base10 logs of y and x and then fit them with simple linear regression. Then calculate the antilog of the residulas and plot these as your trendline. If 2) then take natural logs of y and x and follow the rest of the procedure described in 1). Hope this helps.

Hi all, I have a dataset which consists of 2 columns. I'd like to plot them on a x-y scatter plot and fit an exponential trendline. I'd like R to determine the equation for the trendline and display it on the graph. Since I am new to R (and statistics), any advice on how to achieve this will be greatly appreciated.
