Like if the equation is : 9 - 55x = 3y, then rearrange in the form y = mx + c.
So 3y = -55x + 9; or : y = (-55x + 9)/3

there is,its on page 6
http://www.xtremepapers.net/CIE/International%20A%20And%20AS%20Level/9702%20-%20Physics/9702_s08_qp_31.pdf

Look at your graph again.

On the  Y-axis you plotted cos(\frac{\theta}{2}) and on your x axis you plotted n

Looking at the equation :
<br />cos(\frac{\theta}{2}) = \frac{mgn}{2T} + k

Hence, substitute cos(\frac{\theta}{2}) for Y and n for X

You will get :

y = \frac{mg}{2T}x +k

Hence, \frac{mg}{2T} is the gradient of the graph and k is your y-intercept.
