Question

7.4 (20.33) - 20 points: The following model is frequently used in environmental engineering to parameterize the effect of temperature T (°C) on biochemical reaction rates k (per day), where

k20 and 0 are parameters. Use a transformation to linearize this equation. Then employ linear regression to estimate k2o and u and predict the reaction rate at T = 17°C.
