市场均衡与看不见的手
在需求曲线与供给曲线相交之处，价格和数量自行达到均衡；任何其他价格都会引发短缺或过剩的力量，把市场推回均衡。

5. Finding the equilibrium
A market has demand Q = 130 - 2P and supply Q = 4P, with Q in tons per week and P in dollars. What are the equilibrium price and quantity?
6. The pressure at a low price
In the honey market with demand Q = 120 - 2P and supply Q = 3P, the equilibrium price is 24 dollars. If the price currently sits at 16 dollars, what force pushes the market and in which direction?
7. The size of the shortage
A market has demand Q = 150 - 3P and supply Q = 2P. At a price of 20 dollars, compute the shortage, quantity demanded minus quantity supplied, and write the number.
8. Finding the crossing
A market has demand Q = 90 - P and supply Q = 2P. What are the equilibrium price and quantity?
9. Reading a shortage
In the same market, demand Q = 90 - P and supply Q = 2P, the price is stuck at 18 dollars. What happens?
10. The traded quantity
A market has demand Q = 150 - 3P and supply Q = 2P. Compute the equilibrium quantity, and write the number.
