b) In the world market, equilibrium will occur at a price of $2.50, when the quantity supplied and demanded will be 80. At this equilibrium price of $2.50, Alpha will supply 25 units, and Beta will supply 55 units. Alpha will demand 35 units, and Beta will demand 45 units. This implies that Beta will supply more than its demand for steel, while Alpha will supply less. Therefore, Beta will export steel and Alpha will import steel.

Answer:
<u>Predatory pricing</u>
Explanation:
A "predator" refers to an animal who survives by "preying" on other animals.
Predatory pricing in a similar sense refers to that form of excessively low pricing which in a way consumes other firms by taking away their share of industry revenues. Such form of pricing is considered illegal and is against healthy competition.
Such pricing eliminates competitors from the market and gradually leads to emergence of a monopoly i.e supremacy of a single firm in the whole industry and thus considered an illegal practice.
In the given case, the retail chain can be alleged to have followed predatory pricing which is substantiated by the fact that it cuts it's prices excessively i.e even below cost , thereby forcing smaller companies to exit the industry.
The economy is currently in long-run equilibrium. If the central bank increases the money supply, in the long run the price level will raises.
<h3>What is long-run equilibrium?</h3>
The term “long-run equilibrium” is used in economics to represent a theoretical idea in which all markets are in equilibrium and all prices and quantities have fully adjusted to achieve equilibrium.
The long-run differs from the short-run, which has some limitations and markets that are not entirely balanced.
Currently, the economy is in long-run balance. If the central bank expands the money supply, the price level will rise in the long run.
Therefore, in the long run, the price level will raise as the central bank increases the money supply.

Answer:
A). She cites a personal services company in another city that increased its business by adding dog walking to its services.
Explanation:
PREP method is demonstrated as the effective method or approach of presentation or speech that consists of four steps: 'P stands for 'point'(statement of claim), 'R stands for 'reasons'(explanation of the point), 'E stands for 'examples or evidence'(to support the claim), and lastly, 'P stands for point('justification and restatement of the claim').
According to this method, option A i.e. 'She cites a personal services company in another city that increased its business by adding dog walking to its services' reflects the third step that Khandi uses for her presentation. <u>This citation would not only support her claim but also establish the credibility of her claim</u> while the next step would prove how her claim is justified. Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.
