a) b) The demand function for a certain make of exercise bicycle sold exclusively through cable television is 2 = 9-0.029 where p is unit price in hundreds of dollars and q is the quantity demanded/week. i) Compute the elasticity of demand. ii) Determine the range of prices corresponding to inelastic, unitary and elastic demand by solving the equation E(p) = 1. The corresponding supply function for part (a) is given by p = 1 +0.02q where p is unit price in hundreds of dollars and q is the quantity supplier will make available at price p. Determine the consumers' surplus and the producers' surplus if the unit price is set at the equilibrium price. a) b) The demand function for a certain make of exercise bicycle sold exclusively through cable television is 2 = 9-0.029 where p is unit price in hundreds of dollars and q is the quantity demanded/week. i) Compute the elasticity of demand. ii) Determine the range of prices corresponding to inelastic, unitary and elastic demand by solving the equation E(p) = 1.
