Due to the pandemic, the Malaysian government had announced total lockdown known as MCO in the country whereby everyone is required to work from home until further notice. Lesser movements are allowed on the roads and the security is tight on this matter. Due to this scenario, there is a sudden increment of the birth rate in a small town in Seremban. It is almost double from previously. After 4 years, the birth rate is expected to normalize. Use demand and supply diagram to illustrate the effect of these events linking with the following statements. (i) The market for an hour of babysitting services in Seremban during the rise of birth rate. (ii) The market for an hɔur of babysitting services 20 years in the future, after the birth rate has been normalized. Assuming the children born today are old enough to work as babysitters. (iii) The market for an hour of babysitting services 30 years into the future, when children born today are likely to be having children of their own
