The following equations represent the demand and supply functions associated with a given passenger railway route. For a particular season:
Demand function: V=400-12P
Supply function: P=1.5-0.03V+.006V^2
A) determine equilibrium demand and price
B) what is the maximum along the route?
C) what is the minimum ticket price?
D) repeat part a) with supply function P=1.5-.03V+.006V^2

A) determine equilibrium demand and price
B) what is the maximum along the route?
C) what is the minimum ticket price?
D) repeat part a) with supply function P=1.5-.03V+.006V^2
Solution
A)Equi demand where d=s
400-1.5= 12p-0.03v+0.112v
398.5=12p+0.09v
Price= 333 Quantity= 66
B) Demand = 400
C) Maximum= 400x12= 480
C) P= V-400/12 =334/12= 36
D) 1.5-.03x66x.012x66
= 326 (approx)
