    Consumer Surplus = Total utility - expenditure of consumer;

    In our case the market price is q and consumer gets a rebate (discount) of q sqrt (x). According this the expenditure is q - q sqrt (x).

    The total utility is given with 10x√+m.

    So, the expression for the consumer surplus is: 10x√+m - q - q sqrt (x).
