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

k = k₂₀θ^T–20

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