Question

Use the price model above to answer this question.

The graph Y=A+BX+CX2 has Y intercept A.  In the context of price-demand for sleeping bags, what is the interpretation of this value?

Group of answer choices
The break-even point is � sleeping bags per week.
When the price is $� per sleeping bag, there is a weekly demand of � sleeping bags.
The break-even point is $� per sleeping bag.
The equilibrium price is $� per sleeping bag.
When the price is $� per sleeping bag, there is no demand for sleeping bags.
The equilibrium quantity is � sleeping bags per week.
When the sleeping bags are free (price = $0), there is a weekly demand of � sleeping bags.
