Harder, Faster, Stronger



Harder, Faster, Stronger



Mens and Women's Downhill Skating

Cubic Regression-ax^3 +bx^2+cx+d



y=-.oo2x^3+7.06x^2-14049.14x+9322930.316-Womens
y=-1.06+.688x^2-1482.48x+1058253.414-Mens

x is the number of years since 1948, and y is the gold medal times/a,b,and c are the slopes and d is the y-intercept

Women tend to have faster times than men, and an amazing time would be anything under a minute for either men or women. It will probably happen in 2018.
