equilibrium means supply and demand are equal to each other
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay @jayz657
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so set both of the equation equal to each other and solve for x
that will be your answer

1. (22.7143, 71428.6)
2. (71428.6, 71428.6)
3. (71428.6, 22.7143)
4. (22.7143, 22.7143)

37 − 0.0002x= 22 + 0.00001x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
37-22= 15

71428.5714
OpenStudy (anonymous):
that's all I have
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay so you have the value for x
you just need to solve for p now
OpenStudy (anonymous):
all you need to to is plug into one of the equations and solve for p

do*
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so plug your answer into the first equation to get your second value
OpenStudy (anonymous):
