The demand for coffee is given by the following equation, where QD�� stands for the quantity demanded and P stands for price.
QD=100−4PQD= 100- 4P
The supply of coffee is given by the following equation, where QS�� stands for the quantity supplied and P stands for price.
QS=-10+2PQS= -10+ 2P
For parts a-d, consider a graph of the demand and supply curves with price on the vertical axis and quantity on the horizontal axis.
What is the slope of demand?
Slope =
At what price is quantity demanded equal to zero (this is, graphically, the vertical intercept of Demand)?
P =
What is the slope of supply?
Slope =
At what price is quantity supplied equal to zero (this is, graphically, the vertical intercept of Supply)?
P =
This problem involves solving demand and supply equations together to determine price and quantity.
a. 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?

2.5 This problem involves solving demand and supply equations together to determine
price and quantity.
a. 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
