The number of​ sodas, s, that a street vendor is willing to sell each day is given by the equation s = 100p+600​, where p is the price of the soda. The number of​ sodas, s, that individuals are willing to purchase each day is given by the equation s = −800p+4200​, where p is the price of the soda. The price at which supply equals demand is the equilibrium price. To find the equilibrium price of the​ soda, solve the system of equations given below.     s = 100p + 600                                                                                                                                                                                      s = -800p + 4200                                                                                                                                                                                                                    How many sodas will the vendor sell at this​ price?       Question content area bottom Part 1 The equilibrium price of the soda is $___?____.
