Transcribed Image Text:The image is a graph illustrating the basic economic principles of supply and demand. It displays two lines intersecting on a coordinate plane.
**Axes:**
- The vertical axis represents price, ranging from 10 to 20 in equal increments.
- The horizontal axis represents quantity (Q) ranging from 25 to 225 in increments of 25.
**Lines:**
- The upward sloping line is labeled "Supply."
- The downward sloping line is labeled "Demand."
**Equilibrium Point:**
- The point where the supply and demand lines intersect represents the equilibrium. At this point, the quantity supplied equals the quantity demanded.
- The equilibrium price is approximately 14, and the equilibrium quantity is about 125.
**Conceptual Explanation:**
- **Supply Curve:** This upward sloping line indicates that as prices increase, producers are willing to supply more of the good.
- **Demand Curve:** This downward sloping line shows that as prices decrease, consumers are willing to purchase more of the good.
- The intersection represents market equilibrium, where there is no excess supply or demand.
