Use D = 100 and E = 200 in demand functions
Pd = 450 - 100 + 0.5Pe or Pd - 0.5Pe = 350
Pe = 300 - 200 + Pd or Pe - Pd = 100
Now we have Pd - 0.5Pe = 350 and Pe - Pd = 100
This becomes
Pe - (350 + 0.5Pe) = 100
0.5Pe = 450
Pe = 900 and so Pd = 800
Hence equilibrium prices are Pe = 900 and Pd = 800

Partial Competitive Equilibrium 3. Suppose households consider diamonds (D) and emeralds (E) as substitutes. Let the supply of both be fixed in the market period at D = 100 and E = 200. The inverse demand functions for diamonds and emeralds are give by: po = 450 – D + 1/2pE pe = 300-E + PD b. Assume that a new discovery of diamonds increases the quantity supplied to 200 units. How will this affect the equilibrium prices?

1. Suppose that the initial demand and supply curves for coffee are illustrate by D' and St in the graph below. Assume that coffee and kringle are complements in consumption. Clearly label all additions to the graph. a) Suppose that the initial market price of coffee, Po, is $1 per cup (Po = $1). Determine and illustrate the quantity demanded at Po (labeled as Qc), and the quantity supplied at Po (labeled as Qoʻ). Show Qoand Qos on the quantity...

Only B and C are correct market supply curves are more clastic than the long-run industry supply curvers s3. Assame a perfectly-competitive, increasing-cost industry composed of identical firms is initially in long-run equilibrium. Given a decrease in demand, in the short ran: equilbrium price decreases, equilibrium output increases, the output of...
