Abstract
Until now we have considered situations where the algebraic form of the model, i.e.,
$${\beta _0} + {\beta _1}{x_{i1}} + \ldots + {\beta _k}{x_{ik}},$$
was approximately correct. Obviously, this will not always be so. The actual relationship may not be a linear function of the \({x_{ij}}\)’s and sometimes not even of the β j ’s. In some such cases we may still be able to do linear regression by transforming (i.e., using functions of) the independent and/or the dependent variables.
