Correct Answer: Both assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A)


Solution : A demand curve is a graphical representation of the demand schedule. It demonstrates the relationship between an item's price and the quantity of that commodity that a consumer is willing to buy.
A commodity's demand and price are inversely connected, other things being equal.
It implies that a commodity's demand decreases in response to an increase in its price and vice versa.
Hence option b is the correct answer.
