Question

The students of Applied Mathematics at Western University collected data from a creature living on Mars planet in Summer of 2024. They were able to plot a relationship between the length of the leg of the creature (metre) and the mass of the creature (kilogram) on a log-log plot.

Figure 1: The line of best fit on the Log-Log plot of weight with respect to length is y = 3x - 2.

State whether the relationship is isometric or allometric. Justify your answer.
Find the relationship between L, the length of the leg, and M, the mass of the creature.
If we write the relationship as M = aL', find the corresponding unit of a.
