If the demand for a good increases when incomes rise and decreases when incomes fall, the good is called a normal good. See 3-2: Demand True False
If an increase in income leads to an increase in the demand for sushi, then sushi is a normal good. a neutral good. a complement. a necessity.
Consider the markets for beef (B) and lamb (M), where the demand curves are Q = 20 – 2PM + Ps and Q = 60 – 6PB + 4 PM and the supply curves are QM = 2PM and QB = 3P8. a) Find the equilibrium prices and quantities for beef and lamb. b) Suppose that an increase in the price of chicken shifts the supply curve of lamb to QM = PM. How does this change affect the equilibrium prices and quantities for beef and lamb? Using words and graphs, explain why a shift in the supply curve for lamb would change the price of beef.
Consider two markets: the market for waffles and the market for pancakes. 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 $9.75, the quantity supplied of waffles is 57.0 and the quantity supplied of pancakes is 101.0. For simplicity of analysis, the demand for both goods is the same. Using the midpoint formula, calculate the elasticity of supply for pancakes. Please round to two decimal places. Supply in the market for waffles is

Draw a graph to analyze the market for agricultural products (food). Label your price and quantity axes properly. In your graph, draw a supply curve for agricultural products (food) that obeys the law of supply. Label (S). In the same graph, draw a demand curve for food that obeys the law of demand. Label (D). Identify the market equilibrium point in your graph and label (E). Also, label the equilibrium price (PE) and the Equilibrium quantity (QE): 1. The federal government instituted acreage restriction programs in an attempt to eliminate the surpluses resulting from the price support program. Using the graph above, explain and illustrate how acreage restrictions, if effective might reduce or eliminate food surpluses. Label and explain clearly.

Answer question 2 please
If the cross-price elasticity of demand for good X with respect to good Y equals 0, how is that value interpreted? These goods are complements, and the quantity demanded of good X increases if the price of good Y decreases. These goods are unrelated, and a change in the price of good Y has no effect on the quantity of good X demanded. These goods are normal goods, and a change in buyers income increases the quantity demanded of good X. These goods are substitutes, and the quantity demanded of good X decreases if the price of good Y decreases.
