QS = -50 + 20P
Where QD is the quantity demanded, QS is the quantity supplied, and P is the price. Which of the following is true for these market demand and supply curves?
A) The law of supply holds because the derivative of the demand with respect to price is -120.
B) The law of supply holds because the derivative of the demand with respect to price is 20.
C) The law of supply does not hold because the derivative of the demand with respect to price is -120.
D) The law of supply does not hold because the derivative of the demand with respect to price is 20.
