the supply S of a commodity (in thousands of units), if the price is P dollars per unit, is given by the equation
\n" ); document.write( "s= 0.3p+3
\n" ); document.write( "the demand D for that commodity(in thousands of units), if the price is p dollas per unit, is given by the equation
\n" ); document.write( "d= -o.5p+9
\n" ); document.write( "the value of p for which s = d is called equilibrium price
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "a) graph both equations in the same coordinate plane. (let the horizontal axis represent price and the vertical axis represent supply or demand in thousands of units)
\n" ); document.write( "\"graph%28400%2C300%2C-10%2C20%2C-10%2C20%2C0.3x%2B3%2C-0.5x%2B9%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "b) determine the equilibrium price
\n" ); document.write( "Solve 0.3p+3 = -0.5p+9
\n" ); document.write( "0.8p = 6
\n" ); document.write( "p = 7.5
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "c) what will happen at prices greater than this price?
\n" ); document.write( "As price rises demand goes decreases.
