Homework Statement
A problem about pressure vs. temperature of a gas. Details not necessary since I'm just looking for specific help (see "Relevant equations").
Homework Equations
P = 0.0034T + 0.9517
This is the equation that I'm given, which is the slope of the line plotting pressure vs temperature. The 0.0034 is the slope and the 0.9517 is the Y-intercept. Finding the units isn't what he's looking for, but I need to know the units in order to do my calculations and show my work properly.
The Attempt at a Solution
Pressure is given in kPa, and Temperature in Celsius.
My idea was that the unit of 0.9517 was kPa, and the unit for 0.0034 was kPa/degrees Celsius, so that the 1/Celsius of that and the Celsius of the temperature would cancel out, leaving only kPa on both numbers.
