Q1 - Change in sales of beer was definitely due to the reduction in the price of beer. Change in sales of game tickets were also due to a reduction in the price of beer. Both of these factors relate to demand for beer.
Q2 - Yes, it did. Demand for beer went up as its price went down. The demand for game tickets also went up as a result of reduction of beer price (beer and game tickets being complementary in this case).
Q3 - Own price elasticity of beer = % change in beer demand / % change in beer price
= ((65000 - 8000)/8000) / ((0.10 - 0.65) / 0.65) = -19.93
Q4 - Own price elasticity of game tickets = % change in game ticket demand / % change in beer price
= ((25134 - 13756) / 13756) / ((0.10 - 0.65) / 0.65) = -0.98
Q5 - Complements. Beer could not be bought (the beer available at the ballpark) without the game ticket.
