In economics, it is customary to plot D on the horizontal axis and P on the vertical axis, so we will think of D as a variable and of P as a function of D.
(a) Show that these data can be modeled by a linear function.
For each increase of 0.50 in D there is of in P.
Find its formula. (Use P for price and D for quantity.)P =
−.6d+265
(b) Add the graph of the linear formula you found in part (a), which is called the market demand curve, to the following graph based on the following table for market supply curve.

The following graph contains four lines (A, B, C and D), each of which has a slope that is either positive, negative, zero, or infinite.
For each of the following scenarios, indicate whether the relationship between the two variables is positive or negative, as well as which line on the previous graph has a slope that reflects this type of relationship.
Hint: The X-axis and Y-axis on the graph are not labeled intentionally. You need to substitute the variables from each scenario for the horizontal and vertical axis. For example, in the first scenario, X-axis should be labeled “ The average grade received" and Y-axis should be labeled "The number of hours spent studying".
Scenario: As the number of hours spent studying rises, the average grade received rises.
Relationship: Positive or Negative
Line: A, B, C, or D?
Scenario: As the number of hours spent watching TV rises, the average grade received falls.
Relationship: Positive or Negative
Line: A, B, C, or D?
Scenario: As the…
