![The image contains a grid graph and a set of instructions for analyzing equilibrium price, surplus, and shortage in a market scenario.
**Graph Description:**
- The graph is a blank coordinate plane with the x-axis labeled as "Quantity (per time period)" ranging from 0 to 10 and the y-axis labeled as "Price (per unit)" ranging from 0 to 10.
- There's a section to the right labeled "Tools" with buttons for "Demand" and "Supply," presumably to plot these curves on the graph.
**Instructions:**
The questions involve determining equilibrium price and analyzing market disequilibrium conditions based on different price points.
1. **a. Equilibrium Price:**
- **Question:** What is the equilibrium price?
- **Response:** Include your answer in the provided box as a whole number.
2. **b. Current Price at $7:**
- **(i) Disequilibrium Situation:**
- **Question:** What kind of disequilibrium situation results?
- **Response:** Select the appropriate option from a dropdown menu.
- **(ii) Surplus or Shortage:**
- **Question:** How large is this surplus or shortage?
- **Response:** Enter the number of units in the provided box.
3. **c. Current Price at $3:**
- **(i) Disequilibrium Situation:**
- **Question:** What kind of disequilibrium situation results?
- **Response:** Select the appropriate option from a dropdown menu.
- **(ii) Surplus or Shortage:**
- **Question:** How large is this surplus or shortage?
- **Response:** Enter the number of units in the provided box.
**Note:**
- You are instructed to provide responses as whole numbers.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fb11155a1-ccdc-4c1d-a6a9-b6860bfe0319%2F90e22aa3-4c34-4646-844d-afd78290e943%2Fi1yyqa_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)

**Supply and Demand Data Table**
_Use the following data to draw supply and demand curves on the accompanying graph, and then answer three questions._
| Price | $8 | $7 | $6 | $5 | $4 | $3 | $2 | $1 |
|---------------|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|
| Quantity demanded | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 |
| Quantity supplied | 10 | 9 | 8 | 7 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 |
- **Price**: This row displays the price levels from $8 to $1.
- **Quantity demanded**: This row shows the quantity demanded at each corresponding price level.
- **Quantity supplied**: This row indicates the quantity supplied at each price level.
**Instructions for Graph Plotting:**
1. **Demand Curve**: Plot each price level against the corresponding quantity demanded to create the downward-sloping demand curve.
2. **Supply Curve**: Plot each price level against the corresponding quantity supplied to form the upward-sloping supply curve.
By analyzing these curves, you will be able to visually understand the equilibrium point where supply and demand intersect.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fb11155a1-ccdc-4c1d-a6a9-b6860bfe0319%2F90e22aa3-4c34-4646-844d-afd78290e943%2Fm5bbe1n_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
