Given the two functions below: y=10e-0.5q and y=7ln5q Draw the two functions for the interval -1<q<3. From the diagram drawn identify which of the two functions represents the demand curve, supply curve and name the intercept(s) formed. Economically, it is said that equilibrium is established when the demand curve intercepts the supply curve. Hence or otherwise, determine the equilibritum price and quantity.
Suppose you have been hired by a research firm trying to understand the market for Widgets (a hypothetical product). Your analysis of the data indicates that the Demand curve for Widgets is estimated to be linear and given by equation Qd = 150 – 3P and the Supply curve for Widgets appears to be linear as well and is estimated as Qs = 2P – 20. Graphically draw these two curves, labeling all relevant points (such as intercepts for each line) on the horizontal and vertical axes.
Supply and demand conditions can also be expressed in quadratic form. Find the equilibrium price and quantity, given the demand function P+ Q2+3Q- 20 = 0 and the supply function P- 3Q2+10Q = 5 also make a graph.
The following table shows worldwide sales of a certain type of cell phone and their average selling prices in 2012 and 2013. Year 2012 2013 Selling Price ($) Sales (millions) 928 1,144 375 335 (a) Use the data to obtain a linear demand function for this type of cell phone. (Let p be the price, and let q be the demand). q(p): -5.4p + 3185 X Use your demand equation to predict sales if the price is lowered to $255. 1808 x million phones (b) Fill in the blank. For every $1 increase in price, sales of this type of cell phone decrease by 5.4 million units.
Variables typically included in a multivariate demand function (other than the price and quantity of the item the demand function represents) are consumer tastes and preferences, the number of buyers, spendable (disposable) income, prices of substitute goods, prices of complementary goods, advertising expenditures, weather, and expectations. Recalling that the price of the item being considered is placed on the vertical axis, and the quantity on the horizontal axis, the other variables are termed demand shifters. Please answer the following questions about the affect changes in other variables might have on the demand for the item. These changes will either cause demand to increase (shift right) or decrease (shift left). Use either word as applicable, for the short answer. If the price of a good increases because the demand for it increases, What would you expect the demand for its complement to do? If the demand for coffee beans increases, then what is likely to happen…

2) (20) Demand for widgets is a linear function of price. If the price of Widgets is set to $20, 4200 widgets will be sold. If the price is raised to $25, demand falls to 3600 widgets. a) (4) Find the demand function D(x), where x represents the price and D(x)= y represents the demand for widgets. b) (2) Describe the meaning of the slope of the demand function, in the context of the price, and demand for widgets. c) (2) Find the revenue function R(x), which is price times the demand. (2) Graph the Revenue Function using Desmos, or any other graphing utility of your choice; note the scale on the axes. If your graph doesn't fit on the graph, your Revenue function is probably incorrect. Hint Ask Questions!
