I have a dataset of 5 variables of quantitative continuous type: 4 independent and 1 dependent (see attached). I tried using linear multiple regression for this (using the standard lm function in R), but no statistical significance was obtained. Then I decided to try to build a nonlinear model using the nls function, but I have relatively little experience in this. Could you help me, please: how to choose the right "equation" for a nonlinear model? Or maybe I'm doing everything wrong at all? So far I have used the standard linear model in the "non-linear" model.

I would be very grateful for your help.

If you do not have the opportunity to open the code and see the result, I copy it here:
