Price & Demand In economic theory, we let z represent the number of items (called demand) a supplier will produce if the price of the item is p. For a particular item, if the price is $10 per item, then the demand is 577 items. However, if the price is raised to $33 per item, then the demand decreases to 393 items. Using this information, find the demand equation as a function of the price p? r(p)
