At a price of $3.50 per scoop, the supply of ice cream is 2,100 scoops and the demand is 2,500 scoops. At a price of $5.00 per scoop, the supply is 2,600 scoops and the demand is 1,900 scoops. Find the price-demand equation p=mx+b where p is the price per scoop and x is the number of scoops demanded.
