Data is rarely so uniform and predictable that plotting data points creates a perfectly linear arrangement. Scatter charts might have wildly varying plots that create a seemingly random correlation ...

A linear k-forest is a graph whose components are paths with lengths at most k. The minimum number of linear k-forests needed to decompose a graph G is the linear k-arboricity of G and denoted by ...

An equation of the form \(y = mx + c\) where \(m\) and \(c\) are numbers, gives a straight line when values of \(x\) and corresponding values of \(y\) are plotted on a grid. A straight line is a ...
