Correct Answer: Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation
of Assertion (A).


Solution : One cornerstone of contemporary economics is the law of supply and demand. This idea states that the amount offered and the price of a good are inversely connected. This makes sense for many products since when prices rise, fewer people will be able to purchase them, which will reduce demand.
The price-demand curve has a downward slope.
Hence option a is the correct answer.
