So here we're talking about demand, right? and a demand curve is a relationship between quantity and price, right? and that's what we are given in the equation.
00:10
We have qd equals 5 .3 minus 0 .1p.
00:14
There's my equation.
00:16
Now, for part a, we are asked, what is the quantity if the price is equal to 15 ,000? well, to do that, we plug in for the price.
00:27
Quantity demanded would be 5 .3 minus 0 .1 outside of 15 ,000, right? so this would be, oh, very careful.
00:38
Ah, they're being tricky.
00:39
This is 15, because you'll notice that the price is in thousands.
00:46
So the price here is actually 15, right? not 15 ,000.
00:50
The price is 15, because we're measuring, the equation measures the price in thousands.
00:56
So the quantity demanded is 5 .3 minus 1 .5 is equal to 3 .8.
01:03
And if q is in millions, that is equal to 3 .8 million...
