Calculate the amounts of outputs q1 and q2 that the


A monopolist produces a product in one central production facility using the cost structure: TC = (1/2) Q2 +300 and sells it in two different markets with the following demand functions:

Market 1: P1 = 60 - (1/4)Q1

Market 2: P2 = 80 - (1/2)Q2

where Q =Q1 + Q2
