I know I need to plot a Lineweaver-Burk plot, but the manual way I'm trying doesn't make sense. I'm seeing elsewhere that the x-intercept is 0.8 and the slope is 0.32 but I have no idea how those are being found.
Could I get a step by step walkthrough of how I plot this in order to get the line equation?
Or is there a way to plot it on a graphing calculator?
Why B is correct?
Which one of these is correct ? And why are the rest incorrect?

- A packing plant fills bags with cement. The weight X kg of a bag of cement can be modelled by a Normal distribution with mean 50 kg and standard deviation of 2kg. a) If a bag is selected is at random, find the probability that the weight of the bag is greater than 55 kg. b) If three bags are selected at random, find the probability that 2 bags weigh more than 55 kg. c) Compute the probability in part a using RStudio.arrow_forwardstion 6 of 18 Suppose that a geneticist discovers a new mutation in Drosophila melanogaster that causes the flies to shake and quiver. She calls this mutation quiver, qu, and determines that it is due to an autosomal recessive gene. She wants to determine whether the gene encoding quiver is linked to the recessive gene for vestigial wings, vg. She crosses a fly homozygous for quiver and vestigial traits with a fly homozygous for the wild-type traits, and then uses the resulting F, females in a testcross. She obtains the flies from this testcross. Phenotype Number of flies vg* qu+ 230 vg qu 224 vg qut vg* qu 97 99 Test the hypothesis that the genes quiver and vestigial assort independently by calculating the chi-squared, X², for this hypothesis.

Your lab partner suggests you calculate the primer melting temperatures (Tm) using the formula: Tm = [(A+T) x 2°C] + [(G+C) x 4°C]. Calculate the Tm for Primers 1 and 2 and give your answers in the boxes provided below. You must give your answer as a whole number (no decimal places).
