Good A (an inferior good) and Good B (a normal good) are viewed by consumers to be substitute products. Suppose that the price of Good B falls at the same time that consumer income increases. What is the net effect of these two events on equilibrium in the market for Good A? an increase in equilibrium quantity and an indeterminate effect on price a decrease in both the equilibrium price and quantity an indeterminate effect on quantity but an increase in price an increase in both the equilibrium price and quantity

Sugar is a normal good. You observe that both the equilibrium price and quantity of sugar have risen over time. Which of the following would be most consistent with this observation? Consumers have experienced an increase in income and sugar-production technology has improved. The price of artificial sweetener has risen and the price of coffee has fallen. Consumer tastes have changed so as to prefer sugar less than before. The demand curve for sugar must be positively sloped.
Consider two markets: the market for waffles and the market for pancakes. The initial equilibrium for both markets is the same, the equilibrium price is $6.50, and the equilibrium quantity is 35.0. When the price is $9.75, the quantity supplied of waffles is 57.0 and the quantity supplied of pancakes is 101.0. For simplicity of analysis, the demand for both goods is the same. Using the midpoint formula, calculate the elasticity of supply for pancakes. Please round to two decimal places. Supply in the market for waffles is
