A supply curve for tomato production is given by Q = 35P - 5. Something causes the supply curve to change to Q = 35P -10. This is most consistent with: Increase in imports of tomatoes from Italy Decrease in the opportunity cost of growing zucchini Better production technology to grow tomatoes A government policy that prohibits new tomato farms Reductions in wages of tomato harvesters

Given a demand curve of P = 165 - 6Qd and supply of P = 65 + 5Qs, find the equilibrium price (Pe), AFTER lower input costs have shifted supply by 4 dollars.
Both the supply and the demand for crude oil seem to be price inelastic. It implies that changes in the price of crude oil have a relatively small effect on the quantity demanded or supplied. On the demand side, people as well as businesses tend to continue using oil products even after its price increases, as there are often few substitutes in the short run. That is why there is still growing demand for crude oil. On the supply side, it is difficult as well as expensive for the producers to quickly increase or stop oil production as a response to price changes. Therefore, even after a price rise, the supply is not enough to meet demand. It implies that any given change in supply or demand is likely to have a comparatively large effect on the equilibrium price than on the quantity of crude oil (the percentage change in the price will be higher than the percentage change in quantity). Draw a graph to show the information above
The supply and demand curves for a product are given by p=S(q)= 300+ 40q, p=D(q)= 1000-50 q, where p is the price and q is the quantity of the product. The equilibrium price p* and the equilibrium quantity q* are

Mary sells bottles of lemonade. The demand factor for her lemonade is given by D(q)=100-1.5q and the supply function is S(q)= .75q, where q is quantities of bottles produced. What is price paid by consumer when q=20.
Consider a hypothetical market for copper (q), where q is measured in 1000 tons. Suppose the supply of virgin copper is Sv = 10+5q. Suppose that the supply for recycled copper is Sr = 15+2.5q. Demand for copper is P = 65 - 1.5q. Note, buyers don't distinguish between recycled and virgin copper. The equilibrium price and output for copper is (hint: draw a graph) q=8.46, p = $52.31. q=0, p = $65. q=12.50, p = $46.25. O q=4.44, p = $58.33.
