False. In equilibrium, quantity demanded equals quantity supplied equals quantity transaction. An increase in demand will raise the quantities demanded at all prices. Supply schedule is unaffected, i.e. quantities supplied is unchanged at EACH PRICE. However, the rise in demand will induce a price rise as well as a rise in quantity transacted. Since price is higher, there is a upward movement along the SAME supply curve, so quantity supplied rises with quantity transacted as well.

False, increase in demand will shift the demand curve to the right. Both the quantity and price will increase and it will create a new equilibrium price.

manufacturers will make more notebooks. However, if this is a sustained
trends, computer manufacturers will start making more, and increase supply.
