How fast is the price changing?
The demand equation for rubies at Royal Ruby Retailers is given by the formula below, where q is the number of rubies RRR can sell per week at p dollars per ruby.
q+(4/3)p=70

Anyone?

p = 0.75(70-q) = 52.5 - 0.75q
this is a linear relationship
when q drops by 1/week,
price will rise by $0.75/week
