Suppose that the government enacts a tax on retail sales of road salt, which homeowners and businesses put on walkways and driveways.

Before the tax, 1000 fifty-pound bags of road salt are sold at an equilibrium price of $6.5 per bag. After the tax, 775 bags are sold at $8 per bag. How much revenue does the tax generate for the government?
