s the quantity demanded of good x, Px is the price of good x, I is income, and Py is the price of good y a. On a clearly labeled graph, plot the demand curve assuming Py is $6 and income is $700. Remember to identify and label the intercept points. Label your curve D1. b. On the same graph, plot the demand curve assuming Py is $6 and income is $900. Remember to identify and label the intercept points. Label your curve D2. For the remainder of the problem, assume Px is $12, Py is $6 and income is $700.c. Using calculus, compute the price elasticity of demand for good x.
. Suppose the demand for good x is given by the following equation
Qdx=60-40px+21-30Py
where Qdx is the quantity demanded of good x,
Px is the price of good x,
I is income, and
Py is the price of good y
