Answer:

lower TV prices and greater TV production.

Step-by-step explanation:

Improvement in technology in an industry results in a faster production process, the output per unit time will increase. Supply of products in the market will go up.

Since the market is a competitive one, an increase in amount supplied will result in excess goods pursuing scarce customers. This results in reduction of price of the product.

So an improvement in technology of producing TVs will result in more TVs produced and prices will reduce.
