Two consumers, Smith and Jones, have the following demand curves for recorded operas broadcasts on Saturdays:Smith: PS = 12 - Q Jones: PJ = 12– 2QWhere PS and PJ represent the marginal willingness-to-pay values for Smith and Jones, respectively, and Q represents the number of hours of opera broadcast each Saturday.
