Relationship between Total, Average
and Marginal
Total and Marginal: Marginal measures any change in the total values.
Change in total Marginal
increasing Positive
declining Negative
Rise at increasing rate Rise
Rise at diminishing rate Fall
Marginal and Average
When marginal is greater than average, average will rise.
When marginal is equal to average , average will remain constant
When marginal is less than average, average will fall
Variables
Equations
• An equation specifies the relationship
between the dependent and independent
variables.
• Qx =f (Px)
• Qx= a – b (Px)
• Here ‘a’ parameter has a positive value and
is not dependent on price, this shows that
when price will be zero still the quantity
demanded will not be zero.
A graph is a diagram showing how 2 or more sets of data or variables are related to one another.
Curves : the line depicts the relationship between the variables.
Slopes: show us how fast or at what rate the dependent variable is changing in response to a change in the independent variable.
The rate at which a dependent variable changes due to unit change in an independent variable.
1. Positive Slope: upward sloping, indicating direct relation (i.e. if 1 variable’s value increases other variable’s value also
increases)
2. Negative Slope: downward sloping, indicating inverse relation (i.e. if 1 variable’s value increases other variable’s value will
decrease)
3. Linear / Straight line: the slope is same at all points
4. Non-Linear curve: slope is different at different points
