The equations S=5000-200x and D=9500-100x express the supply S and the demand D, respectively, for a popular compact disc brand in terms of its price x (in dollar)
A) Graph the equations on the same coordinate system.
B) What happens to the supply as the rice increase?
S decreases because the slope is negative.
---------------------------------------------------
C) What happens to the demand as the price increase?
D decreases because the slope is negative.
---------------------------------------------------
D) The price at which supply and demand are equal ia called the equilibrium price.
What is the equilibrium price?
Solve 5000-200x = 9500-100x for "x"
