Answer:

Explanation:

In 1985, winner's prize money = $170

in 2007 winner's cheque = $ 1,173,000

percentage increase per year:

170 * ( 1 + r)^n = 1173000

(1+r)^112 = 6900

r = 8.212%

b)  If the winner's prize increases at the same rate, amount will it be in 2040

= $170 * (1+8.212%)^145  = $15,863,002

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

Equilibrium price=6

Equilibrium quantity=20

Explanation:

P=10-0.2Qd

P-10= -0.2Qd

Qd=p-10/-0.2

Qd=-5p+50

P=2+0.2Qs

P-2=0.2Qs

Qs=p-2/0.2

Qs=5p-10

(a)

Qs=Qd

5p-10= -5p+50

5p-10+5p-50=0

10p-60=0

10p=60

p=6

Equilibrium price=6

Equilibrium quantity

Qd=-5p+50

=-5(6)+50

=-30+50

=20

Qs=5p-10

=5(6)-10

=30-10

=20

Equilibrium quantity=20
