emmainna [20.7K]

<u>Explanation:</u>

The term IoT is an acronym for 'Internet of Things' which refers to a modern technology that allows certain physical objects or “things” as we may call it to connect to the internet.

While Big Data refers not just to large data, but to an innovative field of technology that specializes in analyzing very large (big) data sets.

Consider the education industry, by means of IoT, it is possible for school management to effectively track their student's academic progress in real-time.

IoT and Big Data connected in the sense that, as these physical things (objects) communicate over the internet, a mass amount of data ("Big Data") is been generated which could then be analyzed using specialized software. In other words, they are mutually beneficial.

A market is described by the following supply-and-demand curves:QS = 2PQD = 300−PSuppose the government imposes a price ceiling
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

Binding

$100

200

200

Shortage

Explanation:

A price ceiling is when the government or an agency of the government sets the maximum price for a good.

A price ceiling is binding when the price ceiling is below the equilibrium price.

To find the equilibrium price, equate qs to qd because at equilibrium, quantity supplied is equal to quantity demanded.

2P = 300 - P

3P = 300

P = 100

Equilibrium price is $100.

$100 > $90. Therefore, price ceiling is binding.

To find quantity supplied, plug in the value of P into the equation for quantity supplied

QS = 2(100) = 200

To find quantity demanded, plug in the value of P into the equation for quantity demanded

QD = 300 - 100 = 200

when price is below equilibrium price, quantity demanded increases while the quantity supplied decreases. This leads to a shortage.
