Now, suppose another buyer, Yvette, enters the market for apartments, and her willingness to pay is $225,000. Based on Yvette's and Sean's respective willingness to pay, plot the market demand curve on the following graph using the blue points (circle symbol). Next, shade Sean's consumer surplus using the green rectangle (triangle symbols), and shade Yvette's consumer surplus using the purple rectangle (diamond symbols). Note: Plot your points as a step function in the order in which you would like them connected. Line segments will connect the points automatically.
