Let the equation of trend line be y = a + bx .....(i)
Here n = `square` (even), two middle years are `square` and 2011, and h = `square`
The normal equations are Σy = na + bΣx
As Σx = 0, a = `square`
Also, Σxy = aΣx + bΣx2
As Σx = 0, b = `square`
Substitute values of a and b in equation (i) the equation of trend line is `square`
To find trend value for the year 2016, put x = `square` in the above equation.
y = `square`

Following table gives the number of road accidents (in thousands) due to overspeeding in Maharashtra for 9 years. Complete the following activity to find the trend by the method of least squares.
| Year | 2008 | 2009 | 2010 | 2011 | 2012 | 2013 | 2014 | 2015 | 2016 |
| Number of accidents | 39 | 18 | 21 | 28 | 27 | 27 | 23 | 25 | 22 |
Solution:
We take origin to 18, we get, the number of accidents as follows:
| Year | Number of accidents xt | t | u = t - 5 | u2 | u.xt |
| 2008 | 21 | 1 | -4 | 16 | -84 |
| 2009 | 0 | 2 | -3 | 9 | 0 |
| 2010 | 3 | 3 | -2 | 4 | -6 |
| 2011 | 10 | 4 | -1 | 1 | -10 |
| 2012 | 9 | 5 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| 2013 | 9 | 6 | 1 | 1 | 9 |
| 2014 | 5 | 7 | 2 | 4 | 10 |
| 2015 | 7 | 8 | 3 | 9 | 21 |
| 2016 | 4 | 9 | 4 | 16 | 16 |
| `sumx_t=68` | - | `sumu=0` | `sumu^2=60` | `square` |
The equation of trend is xt =a'+ b'u.
The normal equations are,
`sumx_t=na^'+b^'sumu ...(1)`
`sumux_t=a^'sumu+b^'sumu^2 ...(2)`
Here, n = 9, `sumx_t=68,sumu=0,sumu^2=60,sumux_t=-44`
Putting these values in normal equations, we get
68 = 9a' + b'(0) ...(3)
∴ a' = `square`
-44 = a'(0) + b'(60) ...(4)
∴ b' = `square`
The equation of trend line is given by
xt = `square`
