Suppose the demand equation for shale gas is Qd=10P^-1.8 and the supply equations Qs=2P^0.2What is the equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity?
The supply and demand equations of a good are given by the following formulas
P=4Qs +48
P = -4QD + 240
Find the equilibrium price and quantity.
The equilibrium quantity is. (Type an integer or a decimal.)
The equilibrium price is $. (Type an integer or a decimal.)
When both the supply and demand curves shift in the same direction, the change in equilibrium quantity will be in the
same direction as the shifting curves.

- Assuming an increase in Demant and decrease in Supply, which of the following statements is TRUE? The price of the good will decrease. The quantity of the good will definitely decrease. The price of this good will definitely increase. There will be a permanent shortage of this good. The new equilibrium quantity may increase, decrease, or stay the same. A surplus of this good will result from these changes in Supply and Demand. What new equiLibrium quantity will result depends on the relative magnitude of the changes and the shapes of the Demand and Supply curves. We cannot determine what will happen to price.arrow_forwardThe demand for watches is given by p= 7000 - 2q dollars and the supply of watches is given by p = 0.01q2 + 2q + 1000 dollars where q is the number of watches demanded and supplied when the price per watch is p dollars.
