Transcribed Image Text:The image presents a supply and demand graph for cups of coffee, with an accompanying data table.
**Graph Description:**
- **Axes:**
- The vertical axis (Price) ranges from $0 to $8.
- The horizontal axis (Quantity) ranges from 0 to 300 cups of coffee.
- **Curves:**
- The supply curve (labeled 'S') is red and slopes upward from left to right, indicating that as the price increases, the quantity supplied increases.
- The demand curve (labeled 'D') is blue and slopes downward from left to right, indicating that as the price decreases, the quantity demanded increases.
**Intersection:**
- The supply and demand curves intersect around the price of $5 and a quantity of 200 cups, indicating the equilibrium point where the quantity supplied equals the quantity demanded.
**Data Table:**
| Price | Quantity |
|-------|----------|
| $3 | 200 |
| $4 | 250 |
| $5 | 300 |
| $6 | 350 |
| $7 | 400 |
The table provides specific data points for the supply curve, showing that as the price increases from $3 to $7, the quantity supplied increases from 200 to 400.
**Instruction:**
Above the graph, there is an instruction: "Copy the supply and demand graph onto your notes. Then, using the data in the chart, draw a new supply curve on the graph."
This educational exercise involves understanding how the supply and demand curves interact, identifying equilibrium, and examining how changes in data affect the supply curve.
