What is the Law of Demand?
The Law of Demand states that as the price of a good or service increases, the quantity demanded for that good or service increases as well.
The Law of Demand states that as the price of a good or service decreases, the quantity demanded for that good or service decreases as well.
The Law of Demand states that the quantity demanded for a good or service remains constant regardless of price changes.
The Law of Demand states that as the price of a good or service decreases, the quantity demanded for that good or service increases, and vice versa, assuming all other factors remain constant.
Explain the Law of Supply.
The Law of Supply states that as the price of a good or service increases, the quantity supplied by producers also increases.
The Law of Supply states that as the price of a good or service remains constant, the quantity supplied by producers fluctuates.
The Law of Supply states that as the price of a good or service increases, the quantity demanded by consumers decreases.
The Law of Supply states that as the price of a good or service decreases, the quantity supplied by producers increases.
Define Market Equilibrium.
Market equilibrium is a state where the supply of a product is equal to the demand for that product, resulting in stable prices.
Market equilibrium is when demand exceeds supply resulting in high prices.
Market equilibrium is when supply exceeds demand resulting in low prices.
Market equilibrium is when prices fluctuate constantly due to changing supply and demand.
Name one factor that affects demand.
Weather conditions
Number of competitors
Price of the product
Time of day
Name one factor that affects supply.

What are Adam Smith's contributions to Economics?
Law of supply and demand
Concept of the invisible hand, division of labor, and free markets regulating themselves
Communism
Theory of relativity
How does price affect demand?
Price and demand have a direct relationship.
Price has no impact on demand.
Price only affects supply, not demand.
Price and demand have an inverse relationship.
How does technology impact supply?
Technology has no impact on supply
Technology decreases supply by increasing costs
Technology impacts supply by increasing efficiency in production processes, reducing costs, improving communication and coordination in supply chains, enabling real-time data analysis for better decision-making, and expanding market reach through e-commerce platforms.
Technology impacts supply by reducing demand
What happens when demand exceeds supply?
Surplus is created
Equilibrium is reached
Prices decrease
Shortage occurs
How does competition affect market equilibrium?
Competition can lead to lower prices and higher quantities if it increases, or higher prices and lower quantities if it decreases.
Competition has no impact on market equilibrium
Competition always leads to higher prices and lower quantities
Competition results in a fixed equilibrium point
