The citizens of Splashville enjoy swimming all summer long. Assume that the quantity of swimsuits demanded in a given year depends only on theaverage temperature that summer and the price of swimsuits. Additionally, assume that the cost of Lycra (a synthetic elastic fabric used to produceclose-fitting clothing such as swimsuits) represents the great majority of swimsuit manufacturers' costs and that every other determinant of supplyremains constant over this time period. The following table shows the average summer temperature and the price of Lycra in Splashville for each yearfrom 1995 to 2007.Avg TempPrice of LycraYear(F°)(Dollars per yard)1995759.1996801019978510199875101999802000908.2001857.2002858.2003808.20048013200585132006851220077512The following diagram shows the price of swimsuits and the quantity of swimsuits sold in Splashville for each year from 1995 through 2007.

Currently the production level of the industry is 250 units and the market price is 1,500 (MU/unit). Market studies carried out by companies estimate that if the price rises At 1,800 (mu/unit) the quantity demanded would fall to 200 units and the marginal cost of the production of each company in this new production level is 1,300 (m.u./unit). Assume linearity in market demand and in the marginal costs of production of the companies Graph to justify your answers.
