To model our system, we first focused our attention on the linear range of each enzymes Michaelis Menten plot. The linear range of this plot is governed by the relationship:

This was useful, but Olive Oil contains many aldehyes. The enzymatic response to each aldehyde is different.
To describe this mathematically we started with a simple assumption that none of the substrates would induce competitive inhibition. If this was the case, the modeling would be simple. We would consider the observed velocity to be a linear combination of the three singular responses to aldehyde.

To test our model we built a set of 64 difference combinations
