Question:

For a given demand function Y = 50 - 2P, the quantity demanded at P = Rs. 20 is :

Options:

5 units

10 units

0 units

50 units

Correct Answer:

10 units

Explanation:
Y = 50 - 2P

Where:

  • Y is the quantity demanded
  • P is the price

To find the quantity demanded at P = Rs. 20, we simply substitute P = 20 into the equation:

Y = 50 - 2(20)
Y = 50 - 40
Y = 10 units

Therefore, the quantity demanded at P = Rs. 20 is 10 units.
