how to generate a Supply and Demand function from a Supply and Demand Schedule
Here i demonstrate how to generate a supply and demand function from a data table that includes the supply and demand data for two different price levels. First I show how to compute the slope then the intercept. With slope and intercept information supply and demand can be written in the familar P = a + bQ and... P = a - ...continues
