Answer:
The correct answer is option a.
Explanation:
The long run aggregate supply curve is inelastic and vertical in shape. The reason behind this is that in the long run the output level is not affected by the change in price level. It is rather affected by the quantity of inputs.
A leftward shift in the long run aggregate supply means that the output level is decreasing. This decrease in input in this case is either because of decrease in quantity of labor available,or because of increase in minimum wages the firms are hiring less labor.
So, option a is the correct answer.

Explanation:
Missing options:
- a. the quantity demanded for the market will increase to 30,000 workers.
-
b. the quantity demanded for the market will increase to more than 30,000 workers.
-
c. the quantity demanded for the market will increase, but we can't tell which of the above answers is correct.
-
d. the quantity demanded for the market will increase to less than 30,000 workers.
maximum total demand for labor = 30 (at $8) x 1,000 firms = 30,000 workers, but since the equilibrium rate had been $9 for many years, some workers have already been hired at $9, and it is usually very difficult to lower someone's wage once they have been working. Even thought the quantity demanded will increase, it will probably not be able to reach 30,000 workers.
