can i get some help with this question. We know that the quantity of tuna demanded and supplied is related to the price of tuna. Given that the demand function for tuna is q=(306.25-p)0.5+2.5 and the inverse supply function for tuna is p=76+3q. All quantities are in kilograms and prices in $TT. Determine the quantity of the tuna that will be demanded and supplies when the market is in equilibrium. NB 0.5 is to the power

is that parenthesis right in your question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

q=(306.25-p)^0.5 + 2.5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

think of this that in equilibrium - supply is equal to demand.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I know that much but how do I proceed

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is this calculus? - I would subsitute p into the demand equation - note the .5 power is really a square root. then set both q = p and solve for q

read my last post - what class is this for?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This is a function question
