Answer:

The correct answer is option a.

Explanation:

Pizzas and burgers are substitutes. This implies that they are used in place of each other. If the price of pizza increases, its quantity demanded will decrease. This will be indicated by an upward movement to the left on the same demand curve.

The consumers will prefer a cheaper substitute, as a result, the demand for burgers will increase. This will be indicated by a rightward shift in the demand curve for burgers.
