interested in nursing careers. If successful, the campaign would (1 point)
O shift the labor supply curve to the left.
O shift the labor demand curve to the left.
O shift the labor demand curve to the right.
O shift the labor supply curve to the right.

Answer 1

If the campaign to increase interest in nursing careers is successful, it would shift the labor supply curve to the right.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because the campaign is aimed at encouraging more people to become nurses, which would increase the number of qualified individuals who are willing and able to work in the nursing field. As a result, the supply of labor in the nursing field would increase, causing the supply curve to shift to the right.

The other answer choices can be eliminated as they do not accurately reflect the impact of the campaign on the labor market. A shift in the labor demand curve to the left would indicate a decrease in the demand for nurses, which is not the goal of the campaign. A shift in the labor demand curve to the right would suggest an increase in demand for nurses, which may or may not happen as a result of the campaign. A shift in the labor supply curve to the left would mean a decrease in the number of qualified individuals willing and able to work in the nursing field, which is the opposite of what the campaign is trying to achieve.

Answer 2

C

Step-by-step explanation:

If a state government funds a campaign to increase the number of individuals interested in nursing careers, the successful outcome of the campaign would likely shift the labor supply curve to the right. This means that there would be an increase in the number of individuals willing and able to work as nurses, thereby expanding the labor supply in the nursing field.
