Explanation / Answer

This is the diagram for a perfect competition market as Marginal revenue is constant

In perfect competition, Marginal revenue is price and it is the equation of quantity demanded

I am assuming that question is talking about long run supply curve

In perfect competition, firm will produce quantity at which Marginal revenue is equal to marginal cost i.e. quantity 'n'

In long run to survive firm have to produce supply quantity where price is more than average total cost i.e. quantity 'k'

So in this question supply curve would be portion of marginal cost curve where output is greater than level 'k,

Therefore answer is optiuon 'a'
