Accessible description: The figure shows 4 separate figures each with a linear demand and supply curve for pizzas, where the price is on the y-axis (dollars per pizza) and quantity is on the x-axis (pizzas per month). In figure A, the demand curve shifts upwards from D1 to D2. In figure B, the demand curve shifts downwards from D1 to D2. In figure C, the supply curve shifts upwards (left) from S1 to S2. In figure D, the supply curve shifts down (right) from S1 to S2. q5.jpg Which figure shows the effect of an increase in the price of the tomato sauce used to produce pizza?

Accessible description: The figure shows a linear demand and supply curve, where the price is on the y-axis (dollars per gallon) and quantity is on the x-axis (thousands of gallons). The demand curve slopes downward, and two points lie along the demand curve (1, 4), and (2, 2). The supply curve slopes upward, and three points lie along the supply curve (0, 0), (1, 1), and (2, 2). The supply curve intersects the demand curve at (2, 2). Also depicted is a supply curve that includes a tax on sellers. The supply curve slopes upward, and three points lie along the supply curve (0, 3), (1,4) and (2, 5). The supply curve with the tax intersects the demand curve at (1, 4). f1q25g1 (2).jpg The above figure shows the market for anti-freeze. The government imposes a sales tax on sellers. How much tax revenue does the government raise from this tax?
