B) probably changes, but more information is needed to determine if it rises or falls; increases

C) raises; probably changes, but more information is needed to determine if it increases or decreases

D) lowers; probably changes, but more information is needed to determine if it increases or decreases

E) lowers; increases

 

76) A competitive market is in equilibrium. Then there is a decrease in demand and a decrease in supply. The equilibrium price ________, and the equilibrium quantity ________.
