3. Exchange rates and U.S. exports: A graphical relationship The following graph shows exports from the United States to Japan. (Note: U.S. exports are measured in yen on this graph, which will enable you to see U.S. exports on the same graph as Japanese exports in a later problem.) [Please see the image] Referring to the graph, why does the line showing exports from the United States slope upward? 1. The lower the price of the yen in term of dollars, the lower the exports from the United States to Japan. 2. The higher the price of the yen in term of dollars, the higher the exports from Japan to the United States. 3. The higher the price of the yen in term of dollars, the lower the exports from the United States to Japan. 4. The lower the price of the yen in term of dollars, the higher the exports from the United States to Japan. Suppose that the exchange rate goes from $10 per 1,000 yen to $8 per 1,000 yen.
