You can do this. Plot them as directed. "Gradient" means "slope." Best fit straight line will be y = m x + b, with m the slope and b the value of y at x=0. i is F/N and x is tan theta.

can you show me the graph by drawing @douglaswinslowcooper

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I cannot use draw and don't want to. Take some graph paper or just use a ruler. Vertical axis is y= F/N Horizontal axis is x = tan theta. Put the data points at the (x,y) positions, Use your eye to draw a line that is closest to the majority of the points. Find the slope, and the y-intercept , b. You can and should do it yourself.
