Lesson ��. More Economic Applications of Linear Systems
� Overview
● In this lesson/worksheet, you will solve two types of economicmodels using the techniques for solving systemsof linear equations we covered in Lessons �� and ��.
� Marketmodels
● Consider the following two commoditymarketmodel:
D� = S� (�)D� = �� − �P� + P� (�)S� = −� + �P� (�)
D� = S� (�)D� = �� + P� − P� (�)S� = −� + �P� (�)
where
D� = demand for product � D� = demand for product �S� = supply for product � S� = supply for product �P� = price for product � P� = price for product �
● Look at equations (�) and (�). Explainwhy product � and product � are substitutes. (See Lesson �� for a refresher.)
● We want to �nd the equilibrium prices P� and P� in thismarket.
● First, simplify the system (�)-(�) above. Because of equation (�), you can set the right hand sides of equations (�)and (�) equal to each other. You should obtain an equation with � variables: P� and P�. Simplify the equation bycollecting terms and putting all the P� and P� terms on the le�, and the constant on the right.

● Do the same with equations (�), (�) and (�):

● Putting together the equations you found in (A) and (B), you should end up with the following system ofequations: −�P� + P� = −��
P� − �P� = −�� (C)
(Did you get the same equations? Youmay have the same equations, butmultiplied by −�, which is OK.)
● Rewrite the system (C) in matrix form AX = B:
A = X = B =
● Now, use Cramer’s rule to solve this system and �nd the equilibrium prices:
● You should �nd that the equilibrium prices are P� = ��� and P� = ��
� .
� Amodel for national income
● Consider the following national incomemodel:
Y = C + I� +G� (�)C = a + bY (� < b < �) (�)
where
Y = national incomeC = consumer expenditureI� = business expenditure (i.e., investment)G� = government expenditure
(We saw amore complicated version of thismodel back in Lesson �.)
● Equation (�) says that national income equals total expenditure by consumers, business, and government.

● What does equation (�) say about the relationship between consumer expenditure and total national income?
● Now suppose that I� = �, G� = �, a = �, and b = �� . �en equations (�) and (�) become
Y = C + �� (�)
C = � + ��Y (��)
● We want to solve for the national income Y and consumer expenditures C.
● First, simplify equations (�) and (��) by putting the Y and C terms on the le�, and the constants on the right:
(D)
● Rewrite the system of equations you wrote in (D) in matrix form AX = B:
A = X = B =
● Now, use Cramer’s rule to solve this system and �nd the national income and consumer expenditure:
● You should �nd that the national income Y = ��� and consumer expenditure C = ��

� Exercises
Problem �. Consider the three commoditymarketmodel given by
D� = S� D� = S� D� = S�D� = � − P� + �P� + �P� D� = � + �P� − P� + �P� D� = � − �P� + �P� − P�S� = −� + P� S� = −� + P� S� = −� + P�
Using a similarmethod to the one outlined in Section � of this worksheet, simplify the abovemodel into a systemof � linear equations and � variables P�, P�, and P�. Solve this system to �nd the equilibrium prices P�, P�, and P� byforming the augmentedmatrix of the system and �nding the RREF.
Problem �. Suppose that in a national income model as in Section �, we have I� = ��, G� = �, a = �, b = �� . Use
Cramer’s rule to �nd Y and C.
