Penicillin is hydrolyzed and thereby rendered inactive by penicillinase (also known as b-lactamase), an enzyme present in some p
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

The answer is 5.22 mM.

Explanation:

The calculation of Vmax and Km is as follows:

y =7.6225x + 1.4602

so, when x = 0

x = 1 ÷ Vmax = 1.4602.

Vmax = 1 ÷ 1.4602 = 0.68.

Thus, Vmax of the enzyme is 0.68.

The calculation of (km) is as follows:

Y = 7.6225X + 1.4602

so, when y = 0

x = 1 ÷ Km = 5.22.
