5 During the pandemic in 2020, many more people decided to use home delivery services in order to have meals delivered to them from the restaurant. Suppose the supply of home delivery services is perfectly elastic. You will be asked several questions about this situation. Explain how the pandemic affected the demand for home delivery services. Explain the effect on the equilibrium price and quantity of home delivery services. Explain the effect on the efficient quantity of home delivery services. Explain the effect on the total consumer surplus, the total producer surplus, and the total surplus in the market for home delivery services.
1.If someone told you the cross price elasticity between driving and riding the Metro is -5, this is Group of answer choices *consistent with the article. *inconsistent with the article. *two of the answers are correct. *means both are normal goods *means one is a normal good and the other is an inferior good. 2.If gas prices rose from $3 to $4 a gallon and gasoline consumption decreased by 10% Group of answer choices *demand for gasoline is elastic. *demand for gasoline is inelastic. *total expenditures on gasoline would fall. 3.If gas prices rose from $3 to $4 a gallon and gasoline consumption decreased by 50% Group of answer choices *demand for gasoline is elastic. *demand for gasoline is inelastic. *total expenditures on gasoline would fall. 4.The greater the price elasticty of driving Group of answer choices *an increase in the price of gas would have a greater effect on traffic congestion *an increase in the price of gas…

QUESTION 7 The demand for rubber erasers consists of two components. The first component is the demand for rubber erasers by art students. This demand is given by QA = 19,500 - 325P. The second component is the demand for rubber erasers by all others. This demand is given by Qo = 32,000 - 2,000P. (a) What is the total quantity demanded of rubber erasers if the price of an eraser is: (i) $10 (ii) $15 (iii) $20 (iv) $30 (v) $70 (b) Assume that the supply of rubber erasers is given by Qs = 14,000+ 175P. (i) Find the equilibrium price and the equilibrium quantity. (ii) Calculate the total consumer surplus. [Hint: It may be easier if you calculate the consumer surplus for art students and the consumer surplus for all others separately, and then add them up.] (c) Assume that the supply of rubber erasers is given by Qs = 8,390 + 180P. Find the equilibrium price and the equilibrium quantity. 10 (DC) EN510
7. State the Law of Demand. Discuss the relationship between Price of the good and its Quantity demanded. Over the last 10 years, price of new models of smart Phones increased by 25%. At the same time, the number of sold phones has increased from 250KD to 400KD. Does this example demonstrate that the Law of Demand is false? Explain why or why not. Use graphs.
