Multiple Regression in Excel for Mac

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

Multiple regression analysis can be performed in Excel for Mac without requiring equal numbers of elements in each variable. In the discussed scenario, the user successfully conducted polynomial regression on three columns of S&P 500 closing prices, containing 252, 53, and 12 elements respectively. The conclusion is that varying lengths of data series do not hinder the ability to perform regression analysis in Excel.

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone familiar with excel on a mac can help me? Am i able to do polynomial regression with different x's who contain different amounts of elements? I have three columns, one contains 252 elements, another contains 53, and the last contains 12. They are all closing prices of the S&P 500 for days, weeks, and months respectively. Do they have to be equal in order to perform the regression?

Thanks!
