... Now to find the price Ps*=40+ 4(10) = 80 or Pd*=100-2(10) = 80 So to graph we say how much is the price when the quantity demanded (or supplied) is zero in both equations Ps = 40 + 4(0)= 40 Pd = 100 – 2(0) = 100. These are the intercepts at the Y axis. To calculate the intercept at the X axis we say ...
