Supply and demand is tricky at the best of times. Normally in class we would run through several examples together, make some graphs together, and really riff on our ideas. It won’t be that simple here but we’ll try.
Two important notes:
-Office hours are your friend. For instance, tomorrow from 1-2 PM I’ll be available to help students in 1-on-1 or group settings live.
-Try all activities. The more you do the more chances I have to see what you get and what you don’t get.
