Question
The demand for haddock has been estimated as:
log(Q)=a+b log(P)+c log(I)+d log(Pm)log⁡�=�+b log⁡�+c log⁡�+d log⁡��
 
where
Q� = quantity of haddock sold in New England
P� = price per pound of haddock
I� = a measure of personal income in the New England region
Pm�� = an index of the price of meat
Suppose b=−1.559�=−1.559, c=0.567�=0.567, and d=1.909�=1.909.
