3) If Aspen Ski Resort offers a 25% discount on ski lift tickets, and the quantity of ski rentals increases by 20%, the cross elasticity of demand is:

Cross Price elasticity is negative for complements and income elasticity is negative for inferior goods.
2) Computer and potato chips are weak complements
Small cross price elasticity means goods are not strongly related.
3) -0.8 and the two goods are complements.
Cross price elasticity= 20/(-25)- 0.8
