Question
You are given a pair of supply and demand equations; identify which is supply and which demand. Plot both on the same set of axes and find the point of market equilibrium.$$\begin{aligned}&p-2 x^{2}=1\\&p+4 x^{2}=25\end{aligned}$$
Step 1
To do this, we need to solve each equation for P. For the first equation, we get: \[P = 1 + 2x^2\] For the second equation, we get: \[P = 25 - 4x^2\] Show more…
