When prices go up, demand decreases. This is because as prices increase, consumers are less willing or able to purchase the product or service at the higher cost. Higher prices can make the product less affordable or less attractive compared to other alternatives. As a result, demand decreases as consumers either choose to buy less of the product or switch to cheaper alternatives.
