Answer to Question 1

The supply curve of cable TV shifts leftward because wages are a cost of production, so the price of cable TV rises. Cable TV subscribers decrease the quantity of cable TV they demand (they move leftward along their demand curve for cable TV). Cable TV subscribers increase their demand for movie rentals (the demand curve for movie rentals shifts rightward) so that the equilibrium price and quantity of movie rentals both increase. Hence, when the price of cable TV goes up then the quantity of movie rentals increases, so their cross elasticity of demand is positive.

Answer to Question 2

B
