- Subject: Economics 1.) The demand equation for the Drake GPS Navigator is x + 4p − 1070 = 0, where x is the quantity demanded per week and p is the wholesale unit price in dollars. The supply equation x − 19p + 1000 = 0, where x is the quantity, the supplier will make available in the market each week when the wholesale price is p dollars each. Find the equilibrium quantity and the equilibrium price for the GPS Navigators.

- Consider the competitive market for production of a chemical as shown in the diagram below. This setup will apply to this question and the next two questions. P ($/gallon) Demand: P=220-Q/100 0 Supply: P = Q/400 Q (gallons) Production of this chemical produces noxious odors that impact the health of the communities surrounding the production facilities. It is well known that every gallon produced increases health costs in society, but there is a lot of argument over how much health costs increase. In reality the number is that health costs increase by $3 per gallon produced, but that it hard to discover. If the government does not intervene in this market, what will be the total surplus for society in this market (including the $3 per gallon health costs)? Please do not round at any step of any calculation. Do not round your final answer.arrow_forwardAn economist estimates that a market has a demand curve of the form P = 37- (1.23) Q and a supply curve of the form P = 1 + (0.984) Q. (See the curves graphed in the figure below.) Accordingly, she estimates that the quantity equilibrium (Qe) in this market will be 16.26 (or 16.260163) and that the equilibrium price (Pe) in the market will be.
