For a particular item, if the price is $10 per item, then the demand is 577 items. However, if the price is raised to $33 per item, then the demand decreases to 393 items. Using this information, find the demand equation as a function of the price p? r(p)arrow_forwardSuppose demand and supply for eggs are given by the following equation:arrow_forward

Find the equilibrium point using your calculator and identify the equilibrium units and price. Give your answers to the nearest whole unit and nearest dollar. The value of x at equilibrium is units. The value of p at equilibrium is b. Determine the consumers' surplus.arrow_forwardWhen sold for $790.00, a certain desktop has an annual supply of 129.5 million computers and an annual demand of 155.5 million computers. When the price increases to $865.00, the annual supply increases to 147.5 million computers, and the demand drops to 134.5 million computers.

(a) Assuming that the supply and demand equations are linear, find the supply and demand equations. Supply Equation p = Demand Equation p = esc (Note: The equations should be in the form p = mq + b where p denotes the price (in dollars) and q denotes the quantity (in billions).

Use p for price (in dollars) and q for quantity.arrow_forwardin the Fall of 2020, international demand for U.S. grains grew, pushing up the prices for grains. Indeed grain prices grew nearly 50% in the last 6 months. Your task as an analyst is to analyze the changes in the market for corn. Using a graph, depict the changes that took place in the corn market. Clearly show and explain any shifts in demand and/or supply curves. Label any shifted curves as D1 and/or S1. If the curves have not shifted, please explain why. Clearly show the new market equilibrium.

QS=-10+2PQS= -10+ 2P For parts a-d, consider a graph of the demand and supply curves with price on the vertical axis and quantity on the horizontal axis. What is the slope of demand? Slope = At what price is quantity demanded equal to zero (this is, graphically, the vertical intercept of Demand)? P = What is the slope of supply?
