As you have seen, engineers often need to fit mathematical models to real-world data to better understand and predict system behavior. **Curve fitting** and **regression** are essential tools for this purpose, especially when the relationship between variables is not strictly linear. In the context of pump efficiency, the relationship between flow rate and efficiency is typically nonlinear and often well-approximated by a **quadratic function**. By fitting a quadratic curve to measured data, you can both visualize the trend and extract a predictive model for further analysis.
