Question

what is the Vmax and K of the enzyme in the reaction 

asap please. 

The enzyme that creates prostaglandins (lipids that enable inflammation at sites of injury) uses arachidonic acid as a substrate to form PGG₂. You perform an experiment and obtain the following data.
[arachidonic acid] (mm)
rate of PGG2 formation (mM/s)
0.5
1
1.5
2.5
3.5
1/rate of PGG2 formation (s/mM)
-1.5
-1
-0.5
0.05
Which you then plot into the following Lineweaver Burk plot.
y = 0.0116x + 0.0194
0.04
0.03
F
0.02
0.01
0.5
