On the following graph, show the effect of a 15 percent income tax on your budget constraint.
Deborah is awake for 100 hours per week.
Use the green line (triangle symbol) to draw Deborah's budget constraint if she earns $12 per hour. Then use the blue line (circle symbol) to draw her budget constraint if she earns $16 per hour. Finally, use the purple line (diamond symbol) to draw her budget constraint if she earns $20 per hour.
