15. Another supply and demand puzzleSuppose the market price of chicken wings in a university town recently decreased. Economics students studying at the university are discussingpotential causes of the price decrease. One group of students theorize that the price decreased because several new wing joints have recently openedin the area. Others claim the decrease in the price of chicken wings is because of a recent increase in the price of beer. Everyone agrees that theincrease in the price of beer was caused by a recent increase in the price of hops, which are not generally used in making chicken wings.The first group of students claim the decrease in the price of chicken wings can be attributed to the fact that several new wing joints have recentlyopened in the area.On the following graph, adjust the supply and demand curves to illustrate the first group's explanation for the decrease in the price of chicken wings.Note: Select and drag one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps backto its original position, just drag it a little farther.PRICE (Dollars per chicken wing)SupplyDemandQUANTITY (Chicken wings)¦ +DemandSupplyThe second group of students attributes the decrease in the price of chicken wings to the increase in the price of beer. 15.
