22. Prior to any taxes, the equilibrium price of gasoline is $3 per gallon. Then a $1-per-gallon tax is levied. As a result, the price of gasoline rises to $3.75 per gallon. The incidence of the $1 tax is paid by consumers and paid by producers.

Step-by-step explanation:

After levying a $1 tax on gasoline, the price of gasoilne rose from $3 to $3.75. Thus, $0.75 is paid by the consumer and $0.25 must be paid by the producer.

Hence,

75% of the tax per gallon is paid by the consumer &

25% of the tax per gallon is paid by the producer

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?
