3) c. Increase in the demand for good X
Reason : as imcome falls , inferior good becomes a cheaper alternative as compared to other goods. Hence the demand for inferior goods rises as the income falls . Interior goods acts as cheaper substitute.
4). B. Complements
Reason : Negative cross price elasticity means when price of good A rises , demand for quantity of good B falls. Hence the two goods are complements .

Q3. The general linear demand for good X is estimated to be Q = 25,000 - 80P-0.25M + 72P (6 Pts) where P is the price of good X, M is average income of consumers who buy good X, and P, is the price of related good R. The values of P, M, and P, are expected to be $100, $35,000, and $60, respectively. Use these values at this point on demand to make the following computations. a. Compute the...
