Answer:

Hello your question is incomplete attached below is the complete question

Dead weight loss = 0.5 [( Δp ) * ( ΔD ) ]

D = DEMAND

DWL with quota = 0.5 [ ( $10 -$6 ) * (12 - 8 ) ]

                           = 0.5 ( 4*4 ) = $8

DWL with pigouvian tax  = 0.5 [ ($10- $6 )*(9 - 8 ) ]

                                         = 0.5 [ 4 * 1 ] = $2
