Let's use the two data points provided to establish a linear equation relating Celsius temperature, C, to Kelvin temperature, K.
Given data points:
1. Water freezes at 0^\circ C which is 273.15 Kelvin.
2. Water boils at 100^\circ C which is 373.15 Kelvin.
Let's find the slope, m, of the linear equation using the two points:
m = \frac{K_2 - K_1}{C_2 - C_1} = \frac{373.15 - 273.15}{100 - 0} = \frac{100}{100} = 1
Now that we have the slope, we can write the point-slope form of a linear equation:
K - K_1 = m(C - C_1)
K - 273.15 = 1(C - 0)
K - 273.15 = C
Therefore, the linear equation relating Celsius temperature to Kelvin temperature is:
K = C + 273.15
\boxed{K = C + 273.15}
