 The supply function for a product is 2p -9 - 10

The supply function for a product is 2p -9 - 10 =0, while the demand function for the same product is (p+ 10)(q +30) = 7,500. If a $22 tax is placed on production of the item, then the supplier passes this tax on by adding $22 to his selling price. Find the new equilibrium point E(q, p) for this product when the tax is passed on. (The new supply function is given by p = 79 + 27.) Round your final answer to two decimal places
