Estimate KM and Vmax for the uninhibited reaction from the first graph. What difficulties do you find in getting accurate values? b. Make a Lineweaver-Burk (double reciprocal) plot to determine KM and Vmax again. What advantages do you see with the second method?  c. Use the Lineweaver-Burk method and the table of data for the inhibitors to determine the kind of inhibition for each inhibitor.
