Correct Answer: Assertion (A) is False but Reason (R) is True


Solution : When the price changes, there is a shift along the demand curve. This might happen as a result of altered demand circumstances. Demand-influencing variables are taken to remain constant. A shift in price causes a shift along the demand curve, which is known as a shift in the quantity demanded.
The quantity demanded decreases as the price of the good rises. It causes the demand curve to incline upward. It is sometimes referred to as demand contraction.
Hence option d is the correct answer.
