Step 1
We can do this by substituting p = 1 into the demand equation: x = -1/2(1) + 10 = 9.5 Show more…

For the following demand equation, compute the elasticity of demand and determine whether the demand is elastic, unitary, or inelastic at the indicated price. (Round your answer to three decimal places.) x = (-5/2)p + 14; p = 5 E(5) = 5/2 elastic For the following demand equation, compute the elasticity of demand and determine whether the demand is elastic, unitary, or inelastic at the indicated price. 0.9x + p - 22 = 0; p = 11 E(11) = 11/0.9 unitary
For the following demand equation compute the elasticity of demand and determine whether the demand is elastic, unitary, or inelastic at the indicated price. (Round your answer to three decimal places.) x= (-1/4)p +22 p=11 E(11) = ______ is this elastic, unitary, or inelastic
