= - 12. Recall the market setting in Question 3, where the demand curve is P = 10 – 2Q, and mar- ginal cost is c 2. Now suppose that two firms, numbered 1 and 2 compete over this de- mand curve. They produce quantities Q₁ and Q2, hence total output is given by Q = Q1+Q2. The best response function of firm 1 to firm 2, labeled Q₁ = B₁ (Q2) is given by (a) 2-2Q2 - 4 (b) 2-Q2 (c) 2 – 02 Q2 Q2 (d) 2- (e) 2-Q 4 13. In the previous question, the Cournot-Nash equilibrium quantity produced by each firm is (a) 1 (d) 2 (b) 3 2 (e) 52 (c) 43 3
