result the equilibrium price will remain constant at OP 1 and

                              quantity will decrease toOq respectively.
                     Case-3
                              If decrease in demand is less than decrease in supply then the
                              equilbrium price will increase and the equilibrium quantity will

                              fall.

                              As decrease in demand is less than the decrease in supply then it
                              will create excess demand in the market. In order to overcome the

                              excess demand situation the equilibrium price will rise to OP 2 and
                                                             2
                              quantity will decrease toOq respectively.
