Assume that in the competitive market for pizzas, the demand function is linear. Suppose you know that the equilibrium price is $38, the equilibrium quantity is 8, and the consumer surplus is $48. Given this information, we know that the reservation price (the price at which the quantity demanded becomes exactly equal to zero) is

answer please the last 2 sub questions The estimated demand for Canadian Processed Pork is given byQD = 171 − 20p + 20pB + 3pC + 2Ywhere QD is the quantity of pork demanded (millions of kg), p is the dollarprice per kg, pB is the price of beef per kg, pC is the price of chicken perkg, and Y is average consumer income in thousands of dollars. The supplyfor this market is given byQS = 178 + 40p − 60pB(a) According to the equations, what is the effect of an increase of pCon the market for pork? Specifically, which curve will shift, in whatdirection does the curve shift, and how will the equilibrium priceand quantity change (increase/decrease). On a corresponding graphof the supply and demand, draw the shifting curve and change inequilibrium. Note that no specific numbers are required here. Justthe direction of change.(b) Use the equations to solve for the equilibrium price of pork and quantity of pork as functions of the exogenous variables pB, pC , and Y .These will be linear…
