Their inverse demand functions for gold are as follows:Hugh: p=240.00-40.00 × Qu.Frank: p= 48.00-8.00 × QF.Luis: p= 12.00-2.00 × QLSeQH-QF, and QL are the quantities (in ounces) demanded by Hugh, Frank, and Luis, respectively.

For Hugh: Qh = (240-p)/40 For Frank: Qf = (48-p)/8 For Luis: QL = (12-p)/2

Q1. Suppose the demand curve for pizza in the café is given by Q=300 - 20P- 20P1, where P1 is the price of soda. The supply curve is Q=10P - 10. a) If the price of soda is P1= 5. Find the equilibrium price and quantity of pizza. b) Due to a price change of soda, the market equilibrium price per slice of pizza changes to P*=5. What must be the price of soda now? c)Calculate the cross-price (soda) elasticity of demand (pizza) at the equilibrium point in b), and determine whether pizza and soda are substitute or complement in this example?
Consider two substitute products X and Y. Consumers are willing to pay a maximum price of $2 per unit of X, and $2.50 per unit of Y. If the market price of Y is equal to $2, what is the maximum market price for product X?
If the expected future price of droids increases, then: the current supply of droids will decrease. the current supply of droids will increase. the current quantity of droids supplied will decrease. the current quantity of droids supplied will increase.
Suppose the demand for organic bananas is given by the following equation: Qd = 10 - 1P where Qd is the quantity demanded per week of organic bananas, and P is the price of organic bananas. Suppose further that the supply of organic bananas is: Qs = 3 + 2P where Qs is the quantity supplied per week of organic bananas. What is the equilibrium market quantity of organic bananas? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
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

China’s Thirst for Gas Hurricanes in the Gulf of Mexico, deteriorating pipelines in Alaska, and conflict in Iraq can cause gasoline prices to rise by restricting supply. Often the events we see in the headlines affect the supply of oil available to consumers, but changes in the level of world demand for petroleum products also affects the price of oil. China’s Growing Demand U.S. demand for petroleum products has been high for decades. The United States is the largest consumer of oil, using about a quarter of the world’s petroleum. This is quickly changing. Emerging nations are becoming thirsty for oil, and China is at the top of that list. How did such a rapid change happen? In the past, China has not needed much petroleum. As the country is industrializing, however, it needs more and more fuel to satisfy its growing energy needs. In fact, as the graph of oil consumption between 1995 and 2025 shows, China’s consumption is increasing much more rapidly than…
Which of the following is consistent with the Law of Demand? Question 12 options: When price falls, quantity supplied falls also. When price rises, quantity demanded rises also. When price falls, quantity supplied rises. When price rises, quantity demanded falls.

The nature of demand indicates that as the price of a good increases: suppliers wish to sell less of it. more of it is produced. more of it is desired. buyers desire to purchase less of it.
Market in equilibrium: consider a market for smartphones where the equilibrium price (P*) is $600 per phone, and the equilibrium quantity (Q*) is 100,000 phones per month draw the initial supply and demand graph. qor Q Events: Due to a global shortage of microchips, the cost of producing smartphones increases significantly. Additionally, a new study reveals that smartphone usage can lead to improved cognitive abilities, leading to an increased demand for smartphones. Explain how both the supply and demand curves would be affected. Draw the new supply and demand curves on your graph (in red) and predict the changes in equilibrium price and quantity.
