Expert Solution
Step 1

Chick-fil-A and chicken sandwich are substitutes goods. Such goods can be used in the place of another good. In the case of substitute good, an increase in the price of one good leads to increase the demand of another because the consumers have a tendency to keep away from the expensive good and move along with the less expensive good.
