<span>The
equilibrium price is basically the ideal price that is determined
when the demand and the supply for an item is equal. If you place the
price bellow the equilibrium price, the price of the product will be
lower than what the market is willing to pay, and as result you will
have surplus of the item in the market.</span>
<span>The correct answer is b.</span>
<span>Put all of these numbers in a line...obviously, don't put ALL of them, but enough so you can see what you're doing.
1 + 2 + 3 + ... + 297,624,985
Now put all these numbers BACKWARDS underneath that.
1 + 2 + 3 + ... + 297,624,985
297,624,985 + 297,624,984 + 297,624,983 + ... + 1
Now add the first series to the second, and you'll see that they add up to:
297,624,986 + 297,624,986 + 297,624,986 + ...297,624,986
Since there were 297,624,985 terms, the total sum here is
297,624,986 * 297,624,985
But since you added it twice, you divide it by two:
148,812,493 * 297,624,985
This is 44,290,315,996,937,605, so...yes, it is MUCH larger.</span>
