Actually, supply curve slops upward 9a positive slope). This is due to the fact that as price rises, suppliers would see more benefit in producing these goods (as being able to make more profit).

How is the slope of this supply curve different from the slope of market demand curve?

The slope of the supply curve typically slopes upwards, indicating that as the price of a good increases, producers are willing to supply more of it. In contrast, the market demand curve slopes downwards, reflecting that as prices decrease, consumers are willing to purchase more of the good. This fundamental difference in slope arises from the opposing behaviors of suppliers and consumers in response to price changes. Consequently, the interaction of these two curves determines the market equilibrium price and quantity.
