Consider a hypothetical market for copper (q), where q is measured in 1000 tons. Suppose the supply of virgin copper is Sv = 10+5q. Suppose that the supply for recycled copper is Sr = 15+2.5q. Demand for copper is P = 65 - 1.5q. Note, buyers don't distinguish between recycled and virgin copper. The equilibrium price and output for copper is (hint: draw a graph) q=8.46, p = $52.31. q=0, p = $65. q=12.50, p = $46.25. O q=4.44, p = $58.33.

Solve a Consumers' or Producers' Surplus Problem. A sports watch has a price-demand equation given by p= D(z) = 40-2-0174176a dollars, which gives the price per watch when a watches are demanded. The price-supply equation for the watch is given by p= S(x) = 0.6z+4 dollars, which gives the price per watch when z watches are supplied. If the equilibrium quantity is 11, find the consumers' surplus and the producers' surplus. The consumers' surplus is. (Your answer must begin with S.) The producers' surplus is Your answer must begin with $.)
