ohhh okay, so it's demand curve? :O

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

demand is the maximum price that a customer is willing to pay for a particular good/service, yes ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes:)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

what variables do you have on x-axis and y-axis for a demand curve ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

quantity and price?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Quantity - x axis Price - y axis

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes:D

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

so you collect the information about "(quantity, price)" and plot a scatter plot

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh okay:)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

approximating it to a best fit curve gives you the demand curve

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okie :D

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

so yeah demand curve does show the relationship between "Quantity" the customer is willing to buy at a given "Price"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ahh yay!! thanks so much!! :D
