The demand and supply functions for good x and good y are given as: Q = 145-2Px + Py Q= = -45 + Px Q = 30 + Px-2Py Q = = -40 + 5Py where QP, Q, and P₁ denote the quantity demanded, quantity supplied, and price of good i = x and y, respectively. (a) Determine the equilibrium price and quantity for good x and good y.

Suppose good X is initially at equilibrium with price p1 and quantity q1. Now imagine the following events took place: price of good Y (which is a complement) goes up by 20%, government introduces a tax of 5%, future price of good X is 10% higher (affecting demand only), and cost of producing X has fallen 10%. USING ONE SINGLE DIAGRAM, analyze how this chain of events will affect the equilibrium price and quantity.
Q = a + bP + cM In the demand function above, Q is quantity demanded, P is the price of this good, and M is consumer income. The parameter, b, is the effect on Q of change in P: b ΔQ /ΔΡ Using this relationship for b, find an expression for the price elasticity of demand (E). Select one: O a. E = b(Q/P) O b. E = b(P/Q) %3D O c. E = b(AQ /AP) %3D O d. E = b + (P/Q)

Suppose the demand and supply function of the item x and y are associated with each other. If qx and qy are the units produced and sold of x and y, respectively, and px and py are the corresponding prices, the demand functions are qx=7-px+py and qy=24+px-py and the supply functions are qx=-3+4px-2py and qy=-5-2px+4py. What is the equilibrium prices?
