Consider the demand ftunction for processed pork in Canada, Q, = 796.00 - 37p • 20p, + 3p. + 0.002Y %3D The supply function for processed pork in Canada is: Q = 363.00 + 54p - 60ph pis the price of pork Pp is the price of beof = $4 per kg Q is the quantity of pork demanded Pe is the price of chicken = $3 per kg Y is the income of consumers = $12,500 Ph is the price of a hog = $1.50 per kg (measured in millions of kg per year) Solve for the equilibrium price and quantity for pork. The equilibrium price of pork is S and the equilibrium quantity of pork is milion kg per year. (Enter numeric responses using real numbers rounded up to two decimal places.)

Solve a Consumers' or Producers' Surplus Problem. A sports watch has a price-demand equation given by p= D(z) = 40-2-0174176a dollars, which gives the price per watch when a watches are demanded. The price-supply equation for the watch is given by p= S(x) = 0.6z+4 dollars, which gives the price per watch when z watches are supplied. If the equilibrium quantity is 11, find the consumers' surplus and the producers' surplus. The consumers' surplus is. (Your answer must begin with S.) The producers' surplus is Your answer must begin with $.)
