Suppose that at a price of $3.50, the quantity of output demanded is 16, and at a price of $5.50, the quantity of output demanded is 6. What is the elasticity of demand? (Ignore the negative sign.) Answer:
Elasticity using the mid point formula.



.
Ans:
, here the value is
more than one so the demand is elastic.
