Using Another Cell's Value In Equation

Oct 22, 2008

Lets say I write an equation on my sheet such as:
='A1'!$H422*AH$138

but instead of hard coding the A1 sheet name, I want that to be a value that I can put in a different cell (lets say cell C1) on my same sheet in such a way that it will reference the value in my other cell (Cell C1) and put its value into that equation.

So if I make the value in C1 = A99 then the equation becomes
='A99'!$H422*AH$138

Referencing The Value In A Cell For A Max Equation

May 20, 2007

I have a cell on ' Sheet 2' with the following formula:

=MAX('Sheet1'!C3:'Sheet1'C10)

ie. it chooses the maximum value from column C between rows 3 and 10 on "Sheet 1".

Lets say the cell reference C10 is now entered into cell B1 on Sheet 2. How do I modify the above formula to reference B1?

I have tried INDIRECT function but can't get it to work.

Equation Behind The Function

May 9, 2006

How do I get to see the equation behind Excel Functions? For instance, the
result of pmt() is not making sense to me, I'd like to see what this function
is doing and how it is calculating its value. Trial and Error is rather
time-consuming and tedious.

Jul 24, 2012

Can I use excel to get make an equation for 4 variables (x,y,z,w)

E.g.

a,b,c,d,3,f,g,h,i, would be constants

w = ax + by + cz + dx^2 + ey^2 + fz^2 + gxy + hyz + iyz

I tried regression but the equation looks like

w = ax + by + cz + c

Is it possible on ay other software e.g MATLAB

Regress Nonlinear Equation

Nov 20, 2008

Below is a nonlinear model, together with calibration data for which I would like to find the parameters Ro, Kc, a and b.

R = Ro + Kc * (1/(1 + exp(-(a + b*lnC))

Calibration Data

C R
0.00.3347
4.80.4201
7.70.5141
11.20.6177
14.40.6887

Given the calibration data above, how can I calculate or at least estimate these parameters?
I do not want to use an add-in program, like Solver, in Excel. I do, however, want to be able to use any existing functions, if necessary, in Excel. i'd appreciate it if someone can walk me through the steps.

Calculate Best Fit Equation Of Curve

May 16, 2008

I am trying to calculate the equation of a curve which best fits some data. On the x-axis is date and y-axis the readings. The curve is quadratic, so on the chart I am fitting a 2nd order polyomial and displaying the equation. To prove that the equation the trendline gives me is reasonable, I am applying the equation on the x parameter to get the y parameter estimate and looking to see the error between predicted and actual - see attached.

The equation and the output from it are clearly rubbish, even though on the graph the trendline is a reasonable fit - see attached. Has anyone any ideas why? I think it has something to do with using a date on the x-axis but no idea why. Is there a way to correct for this? I also tried using the following I to calculate the coefficients which came up with a reasonable forecast (although linest should only be used for linear data): =LINEST(C3:C15,B3:B15^{1,2,3})

Equation To Find Top 2 Highest Values?

Mar 8, 2014

I have the following 2 formulas that determine the top 2 scores and return the respective headers, but they aren't perfect.

=INDEX(T1:V2,1,MATCH(MAX(T2:V2),T2:V2,0))

The above returns the max, however doesn't take into account scores that are a tie or 0 values

=INDEX(T1:V2,1,MATCH(LARGE(T2:V2,2),T2:V2,0))

The above returns the 2nd highest value, but some instances the output is correct (if there is a tie or a 0).

How can I fix both of these equations and also determine the 3rd highest score?

ComboBox: Equation In A Column Of Cells

Nov 12, 2008

I want to do is a simple list, 2 items, call them "Thing_1" and "Thing_2". I have an equation in a column of cells. The equation is a simple If statement. If the user selects "Thing_1" then the first equation will run, and if "Thing_2" is selected then the second equation will be used. That's it. No more complex than that.

My original questions about how to initialize a ComboBox are cross-posted here: http://www.excelforum.com/excel-prog...ml#post1996135

Solving Algebra (Equation) In Excel

Jun 5, 2003

How to do the following, which solves the equation, in Excel.

LH
W1
W2

(LH-X)/(LH+X)=W1/W2
(6-x)/(6+x)=.6/1.25
6*1.25-x*1.25=6*.6+x*.6
7.5-1.25x=3.6+.6x
7.5-3.6=1.85x
3.9/1.85=x

x will equal 2.108..... in this case

SUMPRODUCT Equation Based On Multiples

Mar 4, 2009

to create the following formula which I'm now repeating in more elaborate forms. At the moment I am using the formula below but I need to get the bit in red in the second half of the formula to search on more than the one condition.

Currently it is searching a postcode abbreviation field and is picking up all those with 'BS' however I don't just want to search on BS. I would like to search on BS, BA, SN, TA, GL. I have tried putting different combination using commas and plus signs etc in but excel doens't seem to like the way I'm doing it.

=SUMPRODUCT(--(Sheet1!$T$3:$T$10000=A49),--(Sheet1!$S$3:$S$10000="BS"))
