Given that Qd =30-3p, Qs =9p-18, determine the equilibrium quantity.
A
20
B
25
C
27
D
18
E
18
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -To find the equilibrium price a mathematical formula can be used. The equilibrium price formula is based on demand and supply quantities; you will set quantity demanded (Qd) equal to quantity supplied (Qs) and solve for the price (P). This is an example of the equation: Qd = 100-5P = Qs =-125 + 20P.

Detailed explanation-2: -How to calculate equilibrium quantity? It can be calculated by solving the demand and supply function (Qa – bP = x + yP). Solving the equation when the supply equals the demand gives an equilibrium price.

Detailed explanation-3: -Equilibrium quantity is when there is no shortage or surplus of a product in the market. Supply and demand intersect, meaning the amount of an item that consumers want to buy is equal to the amount being supplied by its producers.
