Can you show me step by step What is the algebraic formula of this demand curve?
In 1998, five companies were found guilty because of their actions to raise the price of an animal feed additive, lysine, by limiting its supply. Explain why they would engage such a practice with the use of a graph. Assume that the demand for lysine is inelastic in the short term.
Consider the demand for soap shown in Figure 1 above. What is the quantity demand for soap if the price of a pound of soap is $5? A) 210 pounds B) 248 pounds C) 286 pounds D) 305 pounds
Question #1: On the news there has been outrage over the price of Epipens, a medication needed for allergic reactions to food and bee stings. The price of a two-pack of Epipens has risen from $100 to $600. The number of Epipens purchased fell from 1000 to 400. At the current time, there are no substitutes for this drug Will this increase in price cause a decrease in demand or a decrease in quantity demanded? Illustrate your answer graphically (either by showing a movement along the demand curve or by shifting the demand curve).
please solve C by midpoint method Suppose that the demand schedule for rice for a Saudi family is as follows:PriceQuantity DemandedOf Rice Per Month(income = SR 10,000)Quantity DemandedOf Rice Per Month(income = SR 15,000)SR 5 60 70SR 4 80 95SR 3 100 120SR 2 120 145SR 1 140 170a. Given the table above, draw the demand curve of rice using Excel.b. Show what will happen to your graph if this family like now less rice as they are eatingmore outside.c. Use the midpoint method to calculate the price elasticity of demand as the price of riceincreases from SR 4 to SR 5 if (i) family’s income is SR 10,000 and (ii) family’s income is SR15,000.

Q1
The demand for hamburgers is given by Qd=10-p and the supply is Qs=4p-10, where pd and ps are, respectively the price paid by demanders and the price received by suppliers. A: Draw the demand and supply functions. What is the price-elasticity of demand? What is the price-elasticity of supply? B: Find the equilibrium quantity and price, and show them on the graph. C: Suppose due to the rising health awareness the demand decreases to Q d=5-p. Find the new equilibrium prices and quantity, and show them on the graph. D: Suppose that the demand and supply are as before, i.e. Qd=10-p and Qs=4p-10, but now the government imposes a quantity tax on the suppler at the rate of 1 per unit of the quantity. What quantity will be sold and what price? E: In part d), what is the total amount of tax collected by the government? How this tax amount is divided between the demanders and supplier? Who pays more and why? Explain
