2. (5 marks) The demand and supply functions for good x and good y are given as: Qº = 145 - 2Px + Py Q = -45 + Px Q = 30 + Px - 2Py Q = -40 + 5Py where QP, Q, and P, denote the quantity demanded, quantity supplied, and price of good i = x and y, respectively. (a) Determine the equilibrium price and quantity for good x and good y. (b) Are these goods substitutes or complements? Justify your answer.
