Answer
Before I answer this question, you must note that the equilibrium price is created by both the amount supplied of a certain product as well as how much "customers" there are (or the amount that is bought in all). This however, is usually not taking account any potential competitors.
For example, let say that the price in creating the product (or buying) is $15. This means that right now, the company loses $15 for one of the products. To make a profit, the selling price must be >$15. However, (unless they are a monopoly, such as, for example, electrical companies) there are competitors that they must fight with to get customers. Of course, there are other things that can affect the price, depending on the demographic and area.
So how does supply and demand affect the equilibrium price? The limits of the supply & the amount of demand would help determine the price by the amount of people buying and the supply of the product.

Answer:
c. measures changes in quantity demanded more accurately than elasticity.
Explanation:
Base on the scenario been described in the question, slope measures changes in quantity demanded very accurately compared to elasticity. The main for this reason is that m, slope and elasticity are not the same concepts. Slope evaluates the
flatness or steepness of a line in terms of the evaluating units for price and quantity, while elasticity evaluates the relative response of quantity to changes in price.
