Scatchard Sum

This hyperbolic function results from the binding interactions of macromolecules and smaller ligand molecules and is a branch of biochemcal kinetics. When there are two binding sites, adding the linear data as a vectors from the origin results in a hyperbola of interest to chemists experimentally.
This sketch explores the Scatchard plot for two hypothetical binding sites.
