The formula for the curve of best fit depends on the type of data and the relationship being modeled. For linear relationships, the equation is typically represented as ( y = mx + b ), where ( m ) is the slope and ( b ) is the y-intercept. For polynomial relationships, it can be expressed as ( y = a_nx^n + a_{n-1}x^{n-1} + \ldots + a_1x + a_0 ), where ( a_i ) are coefficients. In more complex cases, other forms such as exponential or logarithmic may be used depending on the data's pattern.
You always use some model (i.e. function) to fit experimental curve. If you do not know the kind of curve (linear, parabola, Gauss, etc.) you can try to fit with different functions and then compare the residual sum of squares and coefficient of determination of those fit functions. I use MagicPlot for curve fitting, you can try to find something in MagicPlot on-line help.
yes
Linear interpolation is used as a method used in mathematics of constructing a curve that has the best fit to a series of points of data using linear polynomials.
the formula
To determine if the line of best fit is appropriate for the data, examine the residual plot for randomness. If the residuals are randomly scattered around the horizontal axis without any discernible pattern, it suggests that the linear model is suitable. Conversely, if the residuals display a pattern (such as a curve), it indicates that a linear model may not be the best fit for the data.
one is straight and one is curved simple

yes
This link seems to fill the bill.
The best curve for me might not be the best curve for you. It's about personal preference.
Yes it does!
You should use a curve if the scatter plot shows a clear curving shape. Otherwise draw a straight line. But a line of best fit should never zigzag from point to point.
Is a wriggly curve that goes through each one of them.
When a function or given data set differes from a liniar curve fit. the difference between the data and a linear curve fit is your linearity error
beckham, best curve
To calculate the radius of curvature for a given curve, you can use the formula: ( R frac1 (dy/dx)23/2d2y/dx2 ), where ( dy/dx ) represents the slope of the curve and ( d2y/dx2 ) represents the second derivative of the curve. This formula helps determine how sharply the curve is bending at a specific point.
Hi the Blackberry Curve 3g is the Blackberry Curve 9300 3g . This is exactly the same phone as the Curve 8520 but it has updated software and a chrome style body. So yes if you see a case you like for the 8520 then you happily buy it knowing that it will fit the 9300 3G. Hope this helps
