The graph represents the market for artichokes (in pounds per week) at a Midwest farmers' market. Suppose the equilibrium price of artichokes is $3 per pound and the equilibrium quantity is 100 pounds of artichokes per week. Using the graph, show the area representing consumer surplus in this market, and then determine how much consumer surplus will be generated by the market each week.
