A certain product has supply and demand functions given by p = 40q + 400 and p = 5400 - 60q respectively. (a) If the price p is $1200, how many units q are supplied and how many are demanded? (b) What price gives market equilibrium, and how many units are demanded and supplied at this price? (A) When the price p is $1200, there are ____ units supplied and ____ units demanded. (Simplify your answer) (B) The market equilibrium price is $___ and ___ units are supplied and demanded. (Simplify your answer)

The demand and supply functions for a certain commodity are as follows: Demand: p = f(q) = 156 - 0.8q; Supply: p = g(q) = 40 + 5q, where p is the price per unit of the commodity in dollars, and q is the quantity in units. Then the equilibrium price is Select one: a. 60 b. 70 c. 140 d. 20
