A _______________ is the graphical representation of the law of demand. | demand curve |
______________ is the amount of product that consumers are willing and able to buy at a specific price. | Quantity demanded |
The sum of the individual demands of all consumers in the market is called the ______________________________. | market demand |
Price is always shown on the ________ axis and quantity is always shown on the ________ axis in economics. | vertical (y); horizontal (x) |
The demand curve slopes _________ and has a _____________ slope. | down; negative |
The demand for a __________ good increases as money income increases, the demand for an______________ good actually decreases as money income increases. | normal; inferior |
Products that can be used in place of each other are called __________________. | substitutes |

_______ or preferences are your likes and dislikes as a consumer. | Tastes |
A ________________ along a demand curve is caused by a change in price and results in a change in the quantity demanded. | movement |
A _________________ of the demand curve is caused by one of the determinants of demand other than price and results in a new demand curve. | shift |
A change in preferences in favor of a good shifts the demand curve to the __________ . | right |
An increase in income shifts the demand curve of normal goods to the __________ . | right |
An increase in income shifts the demand curve for inferior goods to the ___________. | left |
An increase in income will not cause a shift in either direction of a demand curve for ___________ goods. | neutral |
With complementary goods, the demand for one good moves in the ___________ direction as the price of the other good. | opposite |
With substitutes, the demand for one good moves in the_____________direction as the price of the other good. | same |
Factors that cause a shift in demand: | (1)ncome; (2)Tastes; (3) Price of a substitute or price of a complement; (4) Expectations; (5) Size or Composition of the Population |

A _____________________ along a supply curve is caused by a change in price and results in a change in the quantity supplied. | movement |
