Suppose there is a linear downward-sloping demand curve and a linear upward-sloping supply curve for some good. The price of a substitute good decreases and the price of an input to the production process also decreases. Both changes occur simultaneously. Graph the original demand and supply curves, and then graph new curves after the substitute good and input prices decrease. How will the equilibrium price and quantity change after the substitute and input prices decrease? Explain your answer in English...
