14. A supply and demand puzzle The following graph presents the market for sweaters in 2018. Between 2018 and 2019, the equilibrium price of sweaters remained constant, but the equilibrium quantity of sweaters increased. Given this information, you can conclude that between 2018 and 2019, the supply of sweaters and the demand for sweaters. decreased increased was unchanged Use the graph to illustrate your answer by showing the positions of the supply and demand curves in 2019. Drag one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther. PRICE (Dollars per sweater) QUANTITY (Sweaters) Supply Demand

A demand curve that is drawn as a vertical line has a price elasticity of demand equal to infinity. If the price elasticity of demand for an apple is 0.75, then a 4% increase in the price of oranges will lead to a 3% decrease in the quantity demanded. All else equal, the price elasticity of demand for small budget items such as soap tends to be higher than the price elasticity of demand for big-ticket items such as flat-screen TVs.

A demand curve for a commodity is the number of items the consumer will buy at different prices. It has been determined that at a price of $$\$ 2$$ a store can sell 2400 of a particular type of toy dolls, and for a price of $$\$ 8$$ the store can sell 600 such dolls. If $x$ represents the price of dolls and $y$ the number of items sold, write an equation for the demand curve.
