Answer:

a.

P = $3.50 per gallon

b.

Equilibrium Quantity = 165 million gallons

Explanation:

a.

The equilibrium price is the price at which Quantity demanded equals quantity supplied. To calculate the equilibrium price using the given equations for demand and supply, we need to equate both equations.

<u>Equilibrium Price (P) calculation</u>

QD = QS

200 - 10P  =  -10 + 50P

200 + 10  =  50P + 10P

210 = 60P

P = 210 / 60

P = $3.50 per gallon

b.

The equilibrium quantity can be calculated by inserting the value of Price (P) in any of the equation for demand or supply.

Equilibrium Quantity = 200 - 10(3.50)

Equilibrium Quantity = 200 - 35

Equilibrium Quantity = 165 million gallons

garik1379 [7]

Answer:

mediation

Explanation:

The Writers Guild of America and the film studios used a mediator when they started their negotiations. The mediator is an impartial third party that is present during the negotiations and tries to help both parties reach an agreement or settlement. The decisions taken by the mediator are not mutually binding so any party can accept or reject them. A mediator only helps to solve the problem, offers possible solutions, but shouldn't decide anything.

In order for the decisions taken by the third to be binding, the third party must be an arbitrator. In an arbitration process all parties involved must accept the decision of the arbitrator.
