14. A supply and demand puzzle The following graph shows the market for roses in 2010. Between 2010 and 2011, the equilibrium quantity of roses remained constant, but th equilibrium price of roses decreased. From this, you can conclude that between 2010 and 2011, the supply of roses an demand for roses Adjust the graph to illustrate your answer by showing the positions of the supply and demand curves in 2011. Note: Select and drag one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it sn to its original position, just drag it a little farther. Supply Demand Supply Demand QUANTITY (Roses) PRICE (Dollars per rose)

Many changes are affecting the market for oil. Predict how each of the following events will affect the equilibrium price and quantity in the market for oil. In each case, state how the event will affect the supply and demand diagram. Create a sketch of the diagram if necessary.
