Answer:

45%

Explanation:

The market for good x is initially in equilibrium at $5. the government then places a per-unit tax on good x, as shown by the shift of s1 to s2.

As a result of the shift in the supply curve a new equilibrium price is established at $6.25

That implies that the share of the burden that consumers will bear is $1.25 (which represents 55% portion of the tax) - the difference between the previous and new equilibrium prices.

The other 45% portion of the tax will be borne by the producers
