Question: least square - getting started

hi,

i've a problem with a least square exercise.

3 measured values are given:

xi = 1, 4, 6

yi = 2,4,8

i've to find a optimized function of the type "y = f(x) = k * 2^(bx)"

till now i just worked with linear least square exercises like y = px + q. how do i get started with this one. what do i have to do?

thx for help in advance
