It doesn't have to be! It depends how you label x and y axis on your graph.
But generally, the higher the price an item is demand will be less and conversly the lower the price, the higher demand will be.
Conventionally, we put price on the y axis(vertically) and supply (horizontally) on the x axis. However, this can be reversed to give an upward sloping demand curve.
help me with the answer
The demand curve is plotted with quantity on the horizontal axis and price on the vertical. As the price of a good increases, people will want/be able to purchase less of it. If the price decreases, the quantity people will buy more.
why demand curve slopes downward from left to the right
downward sloping
true because it is still supply and demand downward sloping
Demand curve is slope downward because of inverse relationship between price and quantity.
Downward
downward sloping
The demand curve faced by a pure monopolist is of downward sloping in shape.
Yes,it's always downward sloping
The upward movement of the demand curve indicates the rising demand of the product, whereas downward movement of the demand curve indicates falling demand.
A downward sloping demand curve in economics signifies that as the price of a good or service decreases, the quantity demanded by consumers increases.
