4. Your firm produces a computer software called "Model It", which is sold to other businesses. Its demand has been estimated to be: QM = 550 - 4PM +1.5Ps - 2.SI, where, QM denotes units sold of "Model It" software, PM denotes "Model It's" price, Ps denotes the price of a best-selling competitor, and I is the average income of its consumers. a. Currently, PM = $110, Ps= $152, and I = 60. What is the estimated quantity demanded (QM) for "Model It" software? b. What is the change in QM that results from a one unit ($1) change in the PM? c. Holding the values Ps= $152 and I = 60 egnal state the demand function for "Model It"

3. Consider the Smith family who have the following demand for rental housing (q, measured in square feet): q=0.5*(y/p), where y is the Smith family income and p is the price of housing per square foot. The Smith's income is $4000 per month and initially the price of housing is $2 per square foot per month. a. If the Smiths are operating on their demand curve, how much housing are they consuming? b. How much is the Smith family's monthly rent? How much does the Smith family spend on other consumption? c. Starting from the initial equilibrium, the government now grants the Smiths a proportional rent subsidy with B=0.5. How much housing does the Smith family purchase given the subsidy? d. What is the gross market rent per month paid by the Smith family? What is the net rent (after deducting the subsidy) paid by the Smith family? How much does the Smith family spend on other consumption in its new equilibrium? e. What is total dollar outlay of the government for the Smith's housing…

Your task is to show what the profit of this firm might look like using a key economics diagram. To make graphing easier, we will consider the price of the Ozempic drug for the middle-income country Bangladesh, which is $38 (assumed the profit-maximising price). For this task, you will be required to illustrate and explain to a typical first-year undergrad student who has no economics background the profit the firm makes at $38 per month, and what has happened to profit (producer surplus), markup, consumer surplus and the output if the price was reduced from $38 to $10 per month.
I pretty sure I got the first part right. I am struggling with bottom parts.

4. An economic consultant provides a firm's marketing manager with the following estimate of the demand function for the firm's product: Qx = 1240 – 3.13Px - 0.611P, + 2.01M + 0.30AX Px = the price of the firm's product per unit; Py = the price of another good per unit; M = money income for the average consumer; Ax = advertising costs for the firm's product. The demand function shown above indicates that: A. The firm's good (X) and the other good (Y) are substitutes and that X is an inferior good B. The firm's good (X) and the other good (Y) are complements and that X is an inferior good C. The firm's good (X) and the other good (Y) are substitutes and that X is a normal good D. The firm's good (X) and the other good (Y) are complements and that X is a normal good
The demand for a new computer game can be modeled by p(x) = 43-4 In x, for 0sxS800, where p(x) is the price consumers will pay, in dollars, and x is the number of games sold, in thousands. Recall that total revenue is given by R(x) =x•p(x). Complete parts (a) through (c) below. a) Find R(x). R(x) = b) Find the marginal revenue, R'(x). R'(x) =O c) How many units will be sold if the price that consumers are willing to pay is $40? The number of units that will be sold is (Round to the nearest whole number as needed.)
