Consider a market for solar energy panels as shown in the given graph. Due to a major breakthrough in terms of technological advancement in its manufacturing, the cost of production has gone down drastically. This causes the manufacturers of solar energy panels to shift their supply curve. Show the impact of this technological advancement on the supply curve of solar energy panels. Using the Line drawing tool, draw the new supply curve of solar energy panels. Carefully follow the instructions above and only draw the required object. What happens to the equilibrium price and quantity demanded after the supply curve of solar energy panels shifts? O A. Both price and quantity demanded increase. O B. Both price and quantity demanded decrease. O C. Price increases and quantity demanded decreases. O D. Price decreases and quantity demanded increases.

A student was asked to draw a demand and supply graph to illustrate the effect on the market for premium bottled water of a fall in the price of electrolytes used in some brands of premium bottled water, holding everything else constant. She drew the graph to the right and explained it as follows: "Electrolytes are an input to some brands of premium bottled water, so a fall in the price of electrolytes will cause the supply curve for premium bottled water to shift to the right (from S, to S₂). Because this shift in the supply curve results in a lower price (P₂), consumers will want to buy more premium bottled water and the demand curve will shift to the right (from D, to D₂) We know that more premium bottled water will be sold, but we can't be sure whether the price of premium bottled water will rise or fall. That depends on whether the supply curve or the demand curve has shifted farther to the right. I assume that the effect on supply is greater than the effect on demand, so I show…
