Solution

Prices of goods and services are determined by the interaction of demand and supply in a market. When demand is greater than supply, prices generally rise, encouraging producers to supply more. When supply is greater than demand, prices generally fall, encouraging consumers to buy more. The price at which the quantity demanded equals the quantity supplied is called the equilibrium price, and it helps determine the market price of a good or service.
