Suppose that the quantity supplied S and quantity demanded D of T-shirts at a concert are given by the following functions where \( p \) is the price. \[ \begin{array}{l} S(p)=-340+40 p \\ D(p)=1100-50 p \end{array} \] Ariswer parts (a) through (c). (a) Find the equilibrium price for the T -shirts at this concert. The equilibrium price is \( \$ 16 \) (Round to the nearest dollar as needed.) What is the equilibrium quantity? The equilibrium quantity is 300 T-shirts. (Type a whole number.) (b) Determine the prices for which quantity demanded is greater than quantity supplied. For the price \( \$ \) \( \square \) p \( \square \) \$ \( \square \) , the quantity demanded is greater than quantity supplied.

The Deep Dive
To find the range of prices where quantity demanded exceeds quantity supplied, we need to solve the inequality \( D(p) > S(p) \). Starting with the two equations: \[ D(p) = 1100 - 50p \] \[ S(p) = -340 + 40p \] Setting up the inequality: \[ 1100 - 50p > -340 + 40p \] Combining like terms: \[ 1100 + 340 > 90p \] This simplifies to: \[ 1440 > 90p \] Dividing both sides by 90 gives: \[ p < 16 \] Thus, we can conclude that for prices below \( \$16 \), the quantity demanded is greater than the quantity supplied. For the price \( \$ \) **0** \( \square \) p \( \square \) \$ **16**, the quantity demanded is greater than quantity supplied.
