d (q) = 300 - 5 q

$d (q) = 300 - 5 q$ ,

$(15, 225)$

Step 1

Set up the consumer surplus

$\int_{0}^{q_{eq}} d (q) d q - q_{eq} p_{eq}$ where

$q_{eq}$ is the equilibrium quantity and

$p_{eq}$ is the equilibrium price.

$\int_{0}^{15} 300 - 5 q d q - 15 \cdot 225$

Step 2.1

Multiply

$- 15$ by

$225$ .

$\int_{0}^{15} 300 - 5 q d q - 3375$

Step 2.2

Split the single integral into multiple integrals.

$\int_{0}^{15} 300 d q + \int_{0}^{15} - 5 q d q - 3375$

Step 2.3

Apply the constant rule.

$300 q]_{0}^{15} + \int_{0}^{15} - 5 q d q - 3375$

Step 2.4

Since

$- 5$ is constant with respect to

$q$ , move

$- 5$ out of the integral.

$300 q]_{0}^{15} - 5 \int_{0}^{15} q d q - 3375$

Step 2.5

By the Power Rule, the integral of

$q$ with respect to

$q$ is

$\frac{1}{2} q^{2}$ .

$300 q]_{0}^{15} - 5 (\frac{1}{2} q^{2}]_{0}^{15}) - 3375$
