Explanation / Answer

1) substract tax (t) from the price in the supply curve (i.e.substitute P-t for P:   D=f(P) --> S=f(P-t) ). This is because to supply the same quantity nowrequires the producers to receive a higher price (P+t) 2) substract from demand curve price 3) add to supply curve price 4) add to demand curve price
