Use D = 200 and E = 200 in demand functions
Pd = 450 - 200 + 0.5Pe or Pd - 0.5Pe = 250
Pe = 300 - 200 + Pd or Pe - Pd = 100
Now we have Pd - 0.5Pe = 250 and Pe - Pd = 100
This becomes
Pe - (250 + 0.5Pe) = 100
0.5Pe = 350
Pe = 700 and so Pd = 600
Hence equilibrium prices are Pe = 700 and Pd = 600

Partial Competitive Equilibrium 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: 3. Po 450 - D + 1/2pE PE= 300 - E pD What are the equilibrium prices of diamonds and emeralds? а.
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: 3. Po = 450 - D1/2pE PE 300 EPD 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...
1. Suppose gold (G) and silver (S) are substitutes for each other because both serve as hedges against inflation. Suppose also that the supplies of both are fixed in the short run (QG 75 and Qs 300) and that the demands for gold and silver are given by the following equations: P6 975-Q0.5Ps and Ps 600-Qs0.5PG a. What are the equilibrium prices of gold and silver b. What if a new discovery of gold doubles the quantity supplied to 150....
