Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Analyze the graph and the input tool
The graph shows a downward sloping demand curve. The input tool allows us to input either the quantity demanded or the demand price. Currently, it shows a quantity demanded of 5 units at a price of $125. The green vertical line on the graph represents the quantity demanded, and the dashed horizontal line represents the price. The intersection of these lines lies on the demand curve.
Step 2: Verify the information on the graph
We can verify that the information in the input tool matches the graph. The vertical green line intersects the x-axis (quantity) at 5. The horizontal dashed line intersects the y-axis (price) at 125.
Step 3: Interpret the meaning
This graph and input tool represent the relationship between the price of a good and the quantity demanded of that good. It shows that as the price decreases, the quantity demanded increases, which is the law of demand. Specifically, when the price is $125 per unit, consumers demand 5 units of the good.
Final Answer:
The graph represents the demand curve for a good. It visually and numerically demonstrates the quantity demanded at a given price. Currently, the graph and input fields indicate that at a price of $125, the quantity demanded is 5 units.
