What is the
- What if the information regarding market demand and market supply is conveyed in equations rather than tables? Practice how you would find equilibrium in a competitive market using equations for demand and supply.
Suppose in a competitive market the market demand can be represented as follows:
P=10−Q(andthusQ=10−P)
and that market supply can be represented as follows:
P=Q.
Using the fact that at equilibrium the quantity demanded equals the quantity supplied, find the equilibrium price and quantity in this market.

Children also started homeschooling using digital technologies. At the same time, technological progress has accelerated in the IT industry. Assume that the market for computer is in perfect competition and that the initial price of a computer is 1000 dollars. Given this context, explain the impact of the pandemic on: The supply curve of computers (answer in 70-130 words) The demand curve of computer (answer in 70-130 words) The equilibrium in the market for computers (answer in 70-130 words).arrow_forward
