HL exam practice: Linear equilibrium

A local Australian renewable-energy market report gives demand as \(Q_d = 132 - 3P\) and supply as \(Q_s = 27 + 7P\). Explain how HL students should find the equilibrium price and why this is an equilibrium. Use the diagram labels, numerical evidence, and policy context before writing the final judgement. Enter the answer and choose the interpretation that best matches the HL economic evidence.

Worked practice: economic evidence and answer

Identify the economic evidence first, then state the result and interpretation.
