When we increased our quantity supplied of masks, we needed to pull more resources- like labor hours- from the production of gloves to masks." Question- In terms of gloves we???? a) increased our quantity supplied- a downward movement along the supply curve for gloves b) decreased our supply- a leftward shift of the supply curve for gloves c) decreased our quantity supplied- an upward movement along the supply curve for gloves d) increased our supply- a rightward shift of the supply curve for gloves. PS- the graph shown is about N95 MASKS, not gloves. Is the answer B? Idk why.

N95 Return to Equilibrium
Wow, so in the market, suppliers went from
supplying 500 to 4,250 masks - that is a LOT more!
