Options are : "a. The curve would not shift, the change in unemployment would be represented by moving from a point inside the curve toward the curve, b. The curve would shift to the left, c. The curve would not shift, the change in unemployment would be represented by moving from a point on the curve to a point outside the curve. d. The curve would shift to the right."
