Кривая спроса: различия между версиями

The demand curve is often graphed as a straight line of the form Q = a — bP where a and b are parameters. The constant «a» «embodies» the effects of all factors other than price that affect demand. If for example income were to change the effect of the change would be represented by a change in the value of a and be reflected graphically as a shift of the demand curve. The constant «b» is the slope of the demand curve and shows how the price of the good affects the quantity demanded. <ref name=autogenerated1>Besanko and Braeutigam (2005) p/ 91.</ref>

The graph of the demand curve uses the inverse demand function in which price is expressed as a function of quantity. The standard form of the demand equation can be converted to the inverse equation by solving for P or P = a/b — 1/bQ.<ref>Besanko andname=autogenerated1 Braeutigam (2005) p/ 91.</ref>
