Solution
a
Identify the price level: The price level given is $30
b
Locate the quantity supplied on S1S_1: At P=30P = 30, find the corresponding QQ on the supply curve S1S_1
c
Locate the quantity supplied on S2S_2: At P=30P = 30, find the corresponding QQ on the supply curve S2S_2
d
Read the graph: For S1S_1, at P=30P = 30, QS1=40Q_{S1} = 40. For S2S_2, at P=30P = 30, QS2=10Q_{S2} = 10
e
Choose the correct answer: The quantities produced at 3030 are QS1=40Q_{S1} = 40 and QS2=10Q_{S2} = 10
Answer
(E) QSQ_{S} on S1S_{1} = 40, QSQ_{S} on S2S_{2} = 0
Key Concept
Supply Curve Analysis
Explanation
The supply curve shows the relationship between price and quantity supplied. By locating the price on the y-axis and finding the corresponding quantity on each supply curve, we can determine the quantities supplied at that price.
