Demand: Qd=90-4P, where Qd is quantity demanded and P is price Supply: Qs=-100+15P, where Qs is quantity supplied and P is price Recall that equilibrium price was 19, while quantity was 50. At that price, the price elasticity of demand was -0.80. Now I want you to rearrange each equation, putting P on the left-hand side, and solve again for equilibrium P and Q (you ought to get the same answer). Now we want to figure the monopoly price. Take...
