Using the graph on the right, illustrate the following with a supply and/or demand curve: The effect of a sharp decrease in gasoline prices on the demand for electric vehicles. 1.) Using the line drawing tool, illustrate the situation described above. Hint: Draw a new supply or demand curve. Carefully follow the instructions above and only draw the required object.

The following table gives hypothetical data for the quantity of gasoline demanded and supplied in Los Angeles per month, $$\begin{array}{ccc} & \text { Quantity } & \text { Quantity } \\ & \text { Demanded } & \text { Supplied } \\ \text { Price per } & \text { (millions } & \text { (millions } \\ \text { Gallon } & \text { of gallons) } & \text { of gallons) } \\ \hline \$ 1.20 & 170 & 80 \\ \$ 1.30 & 156 & 105 \\ \$ 1.40 & 140 & 140 \\ \$ 1.50 & 123 & 175 \\ \$ 1.60 & 100 & 210 \\ \$ 1.70 & 95 & 238 \end{array}$$ a. Graph the demand and supply curves. b. Find the equilibrium price and quantity. c. Illustrate on your graph how a rise in the price of automobiles would affect the gasoline market.
The following graph shows aggregate demand and short-run aggregate supply. 1. Use the line drawing tool to show the effect of an unexpected decrease in the price of oil. Properly label this line. 2. Use the point drawing tool to show the new equilibrium price level and real GDP. Label this point 'B'. Carefully follow the instructions above, and only draw the required objects.
