Based on the supply and demand expressions given, and the price ceiling imposed, the result would be a shortage of 45 units.

The given expressions are:
Qd = 225 + 22.5

Qs = -22.5 + 1.5p

What would be the equilibrium price?

Quantity supplier = Quantity demanded

-22.5 + 1.5p = 225 - 3p

1.5p + 3p = 225 + 22.5

4.5p = 247.50

p = 247.50 / 4.5p

p = $55

What is the shortage or surplus?

Shortage = Quantity demanded - Quantity supplied

= (225 + 22.5 x 55) - (-22.5 + 1.5 x 55)

= 90 - 45

= 45 units

There will be a shortage of 45units.
