Yeah, we cannot tell for sure how the demand for hamburger would change. We have to driven factors here, an increase in the price of both hot dog and buns. Hot dog is a substitute for hamburger. By definition, substitute good is a good that can be used in place of another good. A higher price of the substitute good would increase the demand of other product. In this case, when hot dog becomes more expensive, hamburgers become relatively cheaper compared to hot dog, so the demand for hamburger would increase. Next, we have a new increase in the price of bonds. Bonds and hamburgers are compliments, meaning they're used together. The consumption of one goods enhanced the consumption of the other good and vice versa. When the price of buns increase, Yeah, the consumption of buns would be, um, reduced. And so is the demand for hamburger. Yeah, we have to conduct contradictory forces at play here, so which force is stronger with determine? The change in the demand for hamburger is the force from the price of hot dog is stronger. We would see an increase in the demand for hamburger, But if once price is a stronger player. Then we would see a degrees in the demand for hamburger. And if the two forces are equivalent, then no change happen for the demand of hamburger.
