Store value from custom function

I have a custom function that finds the coefficients of a quadratic equation and I am trying to find a way to declare as variable. Here is what I tried so far. I have a version of this macro that works, but it does so by manipulating the worksheet. I am trying to make all the calculation happen using arrays and then create a finished table at the end.

Code:
Sub Macro4()
Dim XArray, YArray As Variant
Dim StdCount, QuadA, QuadB, QuadC As Double


    StdCount = 8
    XArray = Range(Cells(5, 11), Cells(4 + StdCount, 11)).Value2
    YArray = Range(Cells(5, 6), Cells(4 + StdCount, 6)).Value2
    
    QuadA = Application.WorksheetFunction.QuadCoef(XArray, YArray, "a")
End Sub

Does anybody know a way to do this?

Can you AutoAverage in Excel?
There is a drop-down next to the AutoSum symbol. Open the drop-down to choose AVERAGE, COUNT, MAX, or MIN
Should have put the custom function code

Code:

rMax = x.Count
crMax = rMax - WorksheetFunction.CountBlank(x)


ReDim XArray1(1 To crMax, 1 To 3) As Double
ReDim YArray1(1 To crMax, 1 To 1) As Double


'set values to array
cxarray() = x.Value
cyarray() = y.Value


'fill y and x array
Dim i As Integer
Dim T As Integer
T = 1
For i = 1 To rMax
       If IsNumeric(cxarray(i, 1)) = True And IsEmpty(cxarray(i, 1)) = False Then
          XArray1(T, 2) = cxarray(i, 1)
          YArray1(T, 1) = cyarray(i, 1)
