Find the equilibrium point for the following:
\n" ); document.write( "D(p)= 132 - 13p
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "S(p) = 86 + 10p
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "That occurs when S(p) = D(p)
\n" ); document.write( "Therefore:
\n" ); document.write( "86 + 10p = 132 - 13p at equilibrium
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "10p + 13p = 132 - 86
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "23p = 46
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "p = 46/23
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "P = 2
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Check, prove that p=2 produces equilibrium:
\n" ); document.write( "86 + 10(2) = 132 - 13(2)
\n" ); document.write( "86 + 20 = 132 - 26
\n" ); document.write( "106 = 106
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
