Writing the inverse demand functions
For Jim : p = 8-Q
For Sam : .5p = 6-Q
P=12-2*Q
Thus the maximim willingness to pay for Jim is $8, so at price of 9, demand comes from only Sam , hence total demand is Q = 6-.5*9
= 1.5 units
now at price = 7.5, both have a positive demand
So total demand is sum of two individual demands = .5 + 2.25
( 8-.5 + 6-.5*7.5) = .5+2.25 = 2.75 units

It says the answer is not 0.5. Suppose Jim has a demand curve of: and Sam has a demand curve of: QS 6 0.5p. How much is the total demand at a price of $9.00?ロunit s round your answer to two decimal places.
Suppose that the demand curve for wheat is QP = 400 - 20p and the supply curve is QS = 20p. The government provides producers with a specific subsidy of s = $2 per unit. How do the equilibrium price and quantity change? The equilibrium price by $ and the equilibrium quantity responses using real numbers rounded to two decimal places.) by $ units. (Enter numeric
Suppose the market was made up of two demanders. Demander 1 has a demand function given by: qp = 100 - 2P. Demander 2 has a demand function given by: qp = 250 - 4P. The horizontal summation of these two demand functions will, when graphed, have a kink (point where the slope changes). Determine the price associated with the kink in the total demand function. (Do not include a dollar sign in your response. Round to the nearest 2...
Suppose that Jim uses his budget to purchase 100 units of Good X and 100 units of Good Y. When the price of Good X rises, he purchases 55 units of Good X and 95 units of Good Y. An economist calculates his compensated budget and finds that in that scenario, Jim would buy 60 units of Good X and 105 units of Good Y Calculate the substitution effect Remember to include a negative sign (-) if the effect reduces...
Suppose a firm has a cost curve equal to C 7200+150Q. The firm's demand curve is p-550 2Q. (Round all numeric responses to two decimal places,) If regulators set the price equal to the marginal cost, what would be the firm's loss? $ -7200 If the regulators set the price equal to the average cost, what would be the price? S 190.00 What would be the deadweight loss in this case of average cost price regulation? $

Tot al supply is thousand units (enter your response as a real number rounded to one decimal place) How much is total supply at a price of $13? Total supply is thousand unts (enter your response as a real number rounded to one deoimal place)
A small monopoly manufacturer of widgets has a constant marginal cost of $15. The demand for this firm's widgets is Q = 110 – 2P Given the above information, compute the social cost of this firm's monopoly power. The social cost is s (Round your response to the nearest penny.)
