Answer:
The correct answer is letter "C": decrease equilibrium price and increase equilibrium quantity
.
Explanation:
An increase in the number of sellers in a market of a certain good implies the quantity demanded for that good will increase, thus the equilibrium quantity will be higher. According to the demand law, if the quantity demanded goes up, the price is likely to decrease, so, the equilibrium price will be lower.
Thus, <em>the increase in sellers will raise the equilibrium quantity decreasing the equilibrium price.</em>
The answer is E all of the above, hope this helps :)!!
Answer:
total expenditure would increase
Explanation:
the demand for ground beef is inelastic.
Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one.
As a result of the disease, the supply of ground beef would fall. this would lead to a hike in the price of ground beef. But since demand for ground beef is inelastic, the the fall in demand would be less than the rise in price, so total expenditures would rise.
