3. Individual and market demand
Suppose that Manuel and Poornima are the only consumers of pizza slices in a particular market. The following table shows their annual demand schedules:
Price
|
Manuel’s Quantity Demanded
|
Poornima’s Quantity Demanded
|
---|---|---|
(Dollars per slice)

1 | 30 | 80 |
2 | 15 | 60 |
3 | 10 | 40 |
4 | 5 | 30 |
5 | 0 | 20 |
On the following graph, plot Manuel’s demand for pizza slices using the green points (triangle symbol). Next, plot Poornima’s demand for pizza slices using the purple points (diamond symbol). Finally, plot the market demand for pizza slices using the blue points (circle symbol).
Note: Line segments will automatically connect the points. Remember to plot from left to right.

Consider a demand curve of the form QD=-2P+20, where QD is the quantity demanded of a good and P is the price of the good. Graph this demand curve. Also draw a graph of the supply curve Qs =2P-4, where Qs is the quantity supplied. Be sure to put P on the vertical axis and Q on the horizontal axis. Assume that all the Qs and Ps are nonnegative for parts a, b, and c. At what values of P and Q do these curves intersect-that is, where does QD = Qs ? b. Now, suppose at each price that individuals demand four more units of output-that the demand curve shifts to QD - 2P+24. Graph this new demand curve. At what values of P and Q does the new demand curve intersect the old supply curve-that is, where does QD = Qs ? c. Now finally, suppose the supply curve shifts to Q's=2P-8. Graph this new supply curve. At what values of P and Q does QD=Q's? Show all working calculations and label garph with…arrow_forward.

Suppose the number of pizza restaurants increases significantly. Show the effect of this change on the market for pizzas by shifting one or both of the curves on the following graph, holding all else constant. Note: Select and drag one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther.
