Ed=%change in quantity demanded/%change in price.
Ed=1
Decrease in demand=3%
%change in price=%change in quantity demanded/Ed
%change in price=3%/1
%change in price=3%
Elasticity of supply has nothing to do with this question because price will change because of change in demand,and none of the answers are correct.
Assume demand decreases by 3 percent, the absolute value of price elasticity of demand is 1,...
A linear downward-sloping demand curve has price elasticities (in absolute values) that increase as price decreases. remain constant along the demand curve. decrease as price decreases. are greater than or equal to 1.
