Only typed answer and please answer correctly
Consider two markets: the market for cat food and the market for dog food. The initial equilibrium for
both markets is the same, the equilibrium price is $4.50, and the equilibrium quantity is 31.0. When
the price is $8.75, the quantity supplied of cat food is 75.0 and the quantity supplied of dog food is
105.0. For simplicity of analysis, the demand for both goods is the same. Using the midpoint formula,
calculate the elasticity of supply for dog food. Please round to two decimal places.

- Consider two markets: the market for cat food and the market for dog food. The initial equilibrium for both markets is the same, the equilibrium price is $6.50, and the equilibrium quantity is 35.0. When the price is $8.75, the quantity supplied of cat food is 55.0 and the quantity supplied of dog food is 111.0. For simplicity of analysis, the demand for both goods is the same. Using the midpoint formula, calculate the elasticity of supply for dog food. Please round to two decimal places. 1.81 Supply in the market for cat food is There is not enough information to tell which has a higher elasticity. the same elasticity as supply in the market for dog food. more elastic than supply in the market for dog food. less elastic than supply in the market for dog food.arrow_forwardThe city of Cedar Rapids has a large number of video poker arcades.

- Demand and supply often shift in the retail market for gasoline. Below are two demand curves and two supply curves for gallons of gasoline in the month of May in a small town in Maine. Some of the data are missing a. Use the following facts to fill in the missing data in the table. If demand is D1 and supply is S1, the equilibrium quantity is 7,000 gallons per month. When demand is D2 and supply is S1, the equilibrium price is $3.00 per gallon. When demand is D2 and supply is S1, there is an excess demand of 4,000 gallons per month at a price of $1.00 per gallon. If demand is D1 and supply is S2, the equilibrium quantity is 8,000 gallons per month. b. Compare two equilibriums. In the first, demand is D1 and supply is S1. In the second, demand is D1 and supply is S2. By how much does the equilibrium quantity change? By how much does the equilibrium price change? c. If supply falls from S2 to S1 while demand declines from D2 to D1, does the equilibrium price rise, fall, or stay the same?…arrow_forwardConsider the demand for shrimp shown in Figure 2.
