$d (q) = 300 - 5 q$ , $(15, 225)$

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

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