Solution

The law of supply states that with all other factors remaining constant, the quantity of a commodity supply varies directly with its price.

Acc. to Dooley: "The law of supply states that the higher the price, the greater the quantity supplied or the lower the price, the smaller the quantity supplied."

Individual Supply Schedule

Price of good X Quantity Supplied
5 0
10 10
15 20
20 30

Supply curve

∴ The supply curve (SS) indicates that as the price of X rises, so does the quantity supplied.
