New graphing questions for microeconomics students

Hawkes Learning’s Principles of Microeconomics homework and testing platform provides new user-directed graphing that doesn’t rely on Flash or plugins.

These graphing questions enforce deeper learning, provide step-by-step tutorials, and offer specific feedback through an interactive experience!

Question: Suppose you face the following market for coffee. Graph what changes this causes in the market by shifting the appropriate curve and plotting the new equilibrium point.

This summer, we’re releasing more graphing questions throughout the software. Here’s a sneak peak of upcoming graphing question types that will be ready for fall:

  • Start from scratch and plot the supply and demand curves
  • Plot producer and consumer surplus, then calculate each surplus
  • Plot price floors and price ceilings
  • Use graphing for different market structures, such as monopoly and monopolistic competition
