The demand function represents the quantity of a certain good or service that consumers are willing to purchase in the market at different price levels. The law of demand states that there is an inverse relationship between price and quantity supplied (ceteris paribus, hence, given that the rest remains equal).Therefore, <u>when the price charged decreases, the amount that consumers are willing to buy increases.</u>
Answer: The media is able to pick and choose what to make important. Because of this, the issues that we as the public are made aware of often revolve around the personal agenda of those publishing it. Something that could be important but won't have people hop on to comment is likely to not get published due to the reputation of the source. Therefore, we are less likely to see it and will assume that since it's not all over social media and large news companies, it's unimportant. Something that is gossip juicy however may, in reality, be unimportant, but it is very likely to get shared and made a big deal out of, thus giving us the illusion of importance.
