5) (10 points) A monopolist has two segmented markets with demand functions given by P₁ = 160-Q₁ and P₂ = 130-0.5Q2, where p₁ and p₂ are the prices charged in each market segment, Q₁ and Q₂ are the quantities sold in each market segment. The monopolist's cost function is given by c(Q) = 2Q², where QQ₁ + Q₂. Will the monopolist choose to price discriminate? If yes, Find the monopolists profit maximizing prices and outputs sold on each market.
