Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions
If the line graph indicates that Product B's sales are inversely related to Product A's, what can be inferred?
Steps
Concepts
Step 1: Understand what 'inversely related' means. It means that when one thing goes up, the other goes down.
Step 2: Look at the sales of Product A. If the sales of Product A increase, it means more people are buying Product A.
Step 3: Since the sales of Product B are inversely related to Product A, when Product A's sales go up, Product B's sales must go down.
Step 4: This suggests that Product A and Product B are substitutes, meaning people choose one over the other.
Inverse Relationship
– An inverse relationship means that when one variable increases, the other decreases.
Substitutes
– Products that can replace each other; an increase in the sales of one leads to a decrease in the sales of the other.
