Suppose the price of salt increases by 25 percent and, as a result, the quantity of pepper demanded (holding the price of pepper constant) increases by 4 percent. The cross-price elasticity of demand between salt and pepper is nothing. (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places and include a minus sign if appropriate.) In this example, salt and pepper are ▼ substitutes not related complements . Instead, suppose salt and pepper were complements. If so, then the cross-price elasticity of demand between salt and pepper would be A. negative. B. zero. C. positive. D. greater than 1. E. greater than minus1.

Option (C)

Explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

Price of salt increases by = 25%

Quantity of pepper demanded increases by = 4%

Cross price elasticity = Quantity of demand increases ÷ Price of salt increases

= 4% ÷ 25%

=0.16  

Hence Cross-price elasticity of demand between salt and pepper would be positive.

So option (C) is answer

being suspected of supplying drugs means you are much more likely to be charged. the amount of drugs found on you, and whether you have a criminal record, will be taken into account when a punishment is being decided.
