mg=m\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}t}(v)-\left(-k\right)v
Subtract \left(-k\right)v from both sides.
mg=m\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}t}(v)+kv
Multiply -1 and -1 to get 1.
mg=kv
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{mg}{m}=\frac{kv}{m}
Divide both sides by m.
g=\frac{kv}{m}
Dividing by m undoes the multiplication by m.
\left(-k\right)v=m\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}t}(v)-mg
Subtract mg from both sides.
-kv=m\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}t}(v)-gm
Reorder the terms.
\left(-v\right)k=-gm
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(-v\right)k}{-v}=-\frac{gm}{-v}
Divide both sides by -v.
k=-\frac{gm}{-v}
Dividing by -v undoes the multiplication by -v.
k=\frac{gm}{v}
Divide -gm by -v.
