Let eq= equilibrium
at eq, qd=qs
substitute qd= 15 - 1.5p and qs=p in the above derived equation to find the equilibrium price (P.e)
therefore, 15 - 1.5p = p
group like terms
-1.5p - p = -15
-2.5p = -15
make p the subject of the equation by dividing both side by -2.5
therefore,
-2.5p/-2.5 … Read more
