C. The demand curve shifts to the left, and the supply curve shifts to the right.

**Explanation**:
- A leftward shift in **demand** reduces the quantity demanded at any price, putting downward pressure on price.
- A rightward shift in **supply** increases the quantity supplied at any price, also pushing the price downward.
- Both shifts unambiguously lower the equilibrium price.
- Other options either raise the price (A, B, D) or involve conflicting effects.

doubao C. When the demand curve shifts to the left, it indicates a decrease in demand, and when the supply curve shifts to the right, it means an increase in supply. Both of these changes together will typically result in a decrease in the equilibrium price. A shift to the right in the demand curve usually leads to an increase in price. A shift to the left in the supply curve typically leads to an increase in price. And a shift to the right in the supply curve along with a shift to the right in the demand curve may have an uncertain effect on price. C

zhipu C. The demand curve shifts to the left, and the supply curve shifts to the right.

Explanation:
- A. When the demand curve shifts to the right, it typically increases both the equilibrium price and quantity.
- B. When the supply curve shifts to the left, it typically increases the equilibrium price and decreases the equilibrium quantity.
- C. When the demand curve shifts to the left (decreasing demand) and the supply curve shifts to the right (increasing supply), the equilibrium price certainly decreases. The effect on quantity is uncertain, but the price will definitely go down.
- D. When the demand curve shifts to the right and the supply curve shifts to the left, the effect on the equilibrium price is uncertain as these shifts have opposing effects on price.

Therefore, option C is the correct answer as it is the only scenario where the equilibrium price certainly lowers.
