Consider the market for pens. Suppose that the number of students with an allergy to penal erasers increases, causing more students to switch from pencils to pens in schoal. Moreover, the price of plastic, an important input in pen production, has dropped considerably. On the fallowing graat, labeied Scenario 1, indicate the effect these two events have an the demand for and supply af pens. Note: Select and drag one or both of the curves to the desired paskion. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and ik snaps back to its original position, just drag it a litle farther.
