For the demand function q = D(p) = 100 / (p + 3)^5, find the following. a) The elasticity b) The elasticity at p = 3, stating whether the demand is elastic, inelastic or has unit elasticity c) The value(s) of p for which total revenue is a maximum (assume that p is in dollars) a) Find the equation for elasticity. E(p) =
