regression in matlab

I have this matlab code for regression with one indepenpent variable, but what if I have two independent variables(x1 and x2)? How should I modify this code of polynomial regression?

x = linspace(0,10,200)'; % independent variable
y = x + 1.5*sin(x) + randn(size(x,1),1); % dependent variable

A = [x.^0, x];        % construct a matrix of permutations
w = (A'*A)\(A'*y);    % solve the normal equation 
y2 = A*w;             % restore the dependent variable
r = y-y1;             % find the vector of regression residual

plot(x, [y y2]);

Matlab has facilities for polynomial regression function polyfit. Have you tried that?

But if you want to workout your own formulation,you should probably look at textbook or some online resources on regression e.g.
