2. We have the following weekly data on quantity demanded and price of a given
product, and rain (which affects demand).
P denotes Price of the products (in $), Qd denotes the quantity demanded and R
represents rain (in inches).
Qd / P / R
2000 / 25 / 0.5
1800 / 25 / 1
1600 / 30 / 1
Write down the demand in the following form:
Qd = a - bR - cP
and solve for a, b and c (Assume that Qd is a function of rain and prices, but
absolutely nothing else).
