Consider the market for fast food in Mexico in the medium run with the following changes occurring. First, multinational fast food corporations have been opening and expanding in the country. Second, public health groups have been pursuing public health campaigns against consuming foods that are high in sodium and saturated fat and highly processed foods. Explain in words and graphically the effect that such simultaneous changes may have had on equilibrium price and quantity in the Mexican fast food market. Be sure to explain the specific mechanisms at work. I Consider the market for fast food in Mexico in the medium run with the following changes occurring.

(Calculating Price Elasticity of Demand) Suppose that 50 units of a good are demanded at a price of Si per unit. A reduction in price to $0.20 results in an increase in quantity demanded to 70 units. Using the midpoint formula, show that these data yield a price elasticity of 0.25. By what percentage would a 10 percent rise in the price reduce the quantity demanded, assuming price elasticity remains constant along the demand curve?

iestion 14 Select the phrase that correctly completes the following statement. "A positive change in technology caused an increase in the supply of flat-screen televisions.
