b. Hasbro's own division of production determined that they would only supply 140,000 furbies at a price of $24.44. However, they would increase production to 220,000 if the price per furby was $74.44. Find the linear supply equation (price function, y) as a function of the quantity, x, sold. p(z) =Number x+ Number (Round the coefficient of x to 5 decimal places.) !! c. Find the equilibrium point of demand and supply functions in part a and b. (Round to 2 decimal places) Number

I pretty sure I got the first part right. I am struggling with bottom parts.

Transcribed Image Text:Hasbro conducted market research to determine the optimal price to set for their Furby dolls.
a. Through many focus groups, Hasbro determined they could sell 110,000 furbies at a price of $19.99. However, if they lowered their price to $9.99, they
could sell 10,000 more furbies. Find the linear demand equation (price function, y) as a function of the quantity, x, sold.
p(x) = -0.001
r+ 19.99
(Round the coefficient of x to 5 decimal places. Round the constant term to 2 decimal places.)
