1.

Demand

a.) using the demand function (Qdx = 20 – 0.4Px), calculate the quantity demanded
assuming the following prices: (9PTS) - Show the solution

1.) P=5

Qdx = 20 – 0.4(5)

Qdx = 20 – 2

Qdx = 8

2.) P = 15

Qdx = 20 – 6

Qdx = 14

3.) P = 25

Qdx = 20 – 0.4(25)

Qdx = 20 –10

Qdx = 10

b.) based on your answer, present the table and graph (Price vs. Quantity
demanded) (6PTS)

2. Supply

a.) using the supply function (Qsx = -10 + 0.6Px), calculate the quantity demanded
assuming the following prices: (9PTS) - Show the solution

1.) P = 60

Qsx = -10 + 0.6(60)

Qsx = -10 + 36
10 Qsx/10 =36/10

Qsx = 3.6

2.) P = 70

Qsx = -10 +42

10 Qsx/10 = 42/10

Qsx = 4.2

3.) P = 80

Qsx = -10 + 48

10 Qsx/10 = 48/10

Qsx = 4.8
