Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: (D) P–2; Q–1; R–5; S–4

Explanation

Mass curves plot cumulative quantities over time(2). Lorenz curves describe inequality(1). A probability-density curve has unit total area(5). A horizontal road curve changes direction between tangents(4). Therefore D. The price–quantity relation describes a demand curve, not the statistical density curve.
