Kira · Answer 1

B. shortage of 1,000 gallons per week

Explanation:

Price = $1

Quantity demanded = 2,000

Quantity supplied = 1,000

Shortage = Quantity demanded - Quantity supplied

= 2,000 - 1,000

= 1,000 gallons per week

Therefore, As per question Quantity demand that is 2,000 and quantity supplied that is 1,000. So, in this given case the Quantity demand is more than the quantity supplied.

Hence, there is shortage of 1,000 gallons per week.
