The Demand Curve
A demand curve illustrates the quantity of a good that people desire at varying prices. As the price
decreases, the quantity demanded of the product increases. This is evident during Black Friday sales,
where the retailers reduce the price of their goods to encourage holiday shopping. Oil has multiple
uses ranging from fueling vehicles and airplanes to producing plastic for toys such as rubber duckies.
The demand curve summarizes the various ways that people react to price changes. At higher prices,
only the consumers who value oil the most will continue to demand it. For these consumers, the
benefit of purchasing the product is not worth the cost
