If supply curve shifts to the left, what will be change in equilibrium?

Price and quantity change in different direction

The correct answer is option 3: Price and quantity change in different direction

• When the supply curve shifts to the left, it means supply decreases, which creates a shortage at the original equilibrium price.
• To restore equilibrium:
  • Equilibrium price increases because fewer goods are available.
  • Equilibrium quantity decreases because the market now has less supply.
• Since price increases and quantity decreases (opposite directions), they change in different directions.
