Hi,
I am trying to explain some of my variables using a weighted linear
regression, with x and y-coordinates as my explanatory variables.
For example, I want to explain my variable 'agri' in the following way :
agri = x + y + x*y+ x^2 + y^2 where x and y are my coordinates and the
regression must be weighted by the variance.
How can I do it ? Thanks in advance !

For illustration, here is a part of my database (var_agri = variance)
agri se_agri var_agri x y
