k was outside of 10% of one another for me. So not constant. What were the values of a and b? Someone PM me the answers please.

Anyone up for a little discussion?
Did anyone measure the diameter of the flattened thing with a ruler or vernier caliper? The question was for 2 marks which mean we have to repeat readings. I used the ruler, and my average value was 1.57 cm.
So for the uncertainty, the least count of the ruler has to be multiplied by 3, right? Since I took three readings? So 0.3/1.57 *100? Am I correct?

I got 0.44 and -.007.
The question also asked to state the "appropriate units". Yet they said that a and b are both constants. Any idea what to do?

just a note to all the guys in here...i knew after the exam that the y intercept had to be NEGATIVE, so any 1 who got it any number but not negative is WRONG
