How do minimum wages affect employment, and unemployment? In a competitive labor market, the demand for workers is given as QD=10,000-100W, and the supply of workers is given as QS=2,000+1,900W, where Q is the quantity
of workers employed and W is the hourly wage. What is the initial equilibrium wage and employment level?
