![The demand curve and supply curve for one-year discount bonds with a face value of $1,030 are represented by the following equations:
Bd: Price = - 0.8Quantity +1,100
BS: Price = Quantity + 710
Suppose that, as a result of monetary policy actions, the Federal Reserve sells 100 bonds that it holds. Assume that bond demand and money demand are held constant. Which of the following statements is true?
O A. If the Fed increases the supply of bonds in the market by 100, at any given price, the bond supply equation will become Price = Quantity + 610.
O B. If the Fed increases the supply of bonds in the market by 100, at any given price, the bond supply equation will become Price = Quantity + 810.
OC. If the Fed decreases the supply of bonds in the market by 100, at any given price, the bond supply equation will become Price = Quantity + 790.
O D. If the Fed decreases the supply of bonds in the market by 100, at any given price, the bond supply equation will become Price = Quantity + 850.
