If you were to plot y versus m using the equation y = (g/k) m + yo , explain how would you calculate the value for k? which method you would use?

The given equation corresponds to that of a Linear Regression i.e. the data is fit to a straight line where the equation is-

y = (g/k) m + y0

This is of the form:

y = a x + b

where a = slope and b = intercept

In this case:

Intercept = y0

Slope = g/k

thus, k = g/slope

The value of slope can be deduced from the fit and along with the knowledge of the value of g, k can be calulated.
