Solution

Complementary goods

Explanation:

The price of an item Z and the demand for its complement good X have an inverse relationship. When the price of good Z rises, it reduces not only the demand for good Z, but also the desire for good X. The graph depicts the indirect relationship between the price of Good Z and the demand for Good X. As a result, they are complimentary items.
