Suppose the supply curve for chicken taco sandwiches can be written as Qs = -10 + 5P and the demand curve can be written as Qd = 80 - 5P Now suppose the government institutes a price floor on chicken taco sandwiches, to discourage their consumption. They set the price floor at $10. How many chicken taco sandwiches will be bought and sold when this price floor is in place? (Hint: will the quantity traded be determined along the supply curve, the demand curve, or both in this case?) 30 50 20 40
