We obtain the following supply curve of computers from a regression of quantity supplied on price in a market:  Q = 7.527 + 0.00063 P, where Q is quantity supplied of computers measured in units, P is price measured in dollars per unit.  We know  674.725 and  2930.549. Based on this information, if price increases by one dollar, quantity supplied increases by ____ units. (Only type in the number in your answer, do not type in "units" again.)
