Answer to Question 1

The wage increases will cause supply to decrease and increases in the price of cable television service will cause demand for satellite TV service to increase. Equilibrium price will definitely increase. Equilibrium quantity will depend on whether the decrease in supply or the increase in demand is larger. If the supply decrease is larger than the demand increase, equilibrium quantity will decrease. If the demand increase is larger than the supply decrease, equilibrium quantity will increase.
