How do you calculate this? I am puzzled. What is the consumer surplus at equilibrium? Use the following information to answer questions 14: The demand and supply curves for pens are given by: QD= 32 - 10 (P) QS = -16 + 6(P) We know that the equilibrium price is P = $3 and the equilibrium quantity is Q= 2.

I could be wrong, but isn't the area of a triangle 1.5*(b*h)? So the total consumer surplus as an area would be 150?

[@yunalee9352]

area of triangle is (0.5)*(b*h) so total consumer surplus = 300

[@rishabhjain1294]

beejayhitman next level stupid

[@wedeldylan]

The area of a triangle is half that of a rectangle with the same base and height. The area of a rectangle is b*h so the area of a triangle is (1/2)(b*h)
