The cross-price demand elasticity of good X and good Y is equal to zero. The price of good X goes up. Which of the following statements accurately describes what happens:
ANSWER:
Since the cross price elasticity of good x and good y is zero, therefore both the goods are independent of each other and hence when the price of good x rises , the demand for good y will remain constant and so the correct answer is option d that is consumption of good y is unchanged.

The cross-price elasticity of demand between good X and good Yis -0.8. Given this information, which of the following statements is true? Goods X and Y are complements. The demand for goods X and Y is income elastic. The demand for goods X and Y is elastic. • Goods X and Y are substitutes. We were unable to transcribe this image
The price elasticity of demand for a good produced by a monopolist O A. equals zero as long as the good has no close substitutes. O B. does not equal zero because every good has at least one good substitute for it. C. is always inelastic since the demand curve slopes down. O D. does not equal zero because there will always be some substitutes, however imperfect they may be.

If the demand for good X increases when the price of good Y decreases, what can we say about the cross-price elasticity between these two goods, are they substitutes or complements to each other?
22. Consider two imaginary goods, widgets and gadgets. The cross-price elasticity of demand for widgets with respect to the price of gadgets is +0.5. This tells us that widgets and gadgets are a. Compliments b. Substitutes c. Unrelated in consumption For this condition to hold, 23. Assume that the market demand for widgets is perfectly inelastic. a. There must be no good substitute for widgets, and widgets must be a normal good. b. There must be no good substitute for...
the cross price of good x with respect to the price of good y has been estimated as being equal to -0.2. this implies that both goods are normal goods good y and good x are comlpements one of the two goods is inferior while the other is normal but we need additional information to determine which of them is inferior good y and good x are substitutes
