Demand for a particular good is given by the following equation: Q = 25 - 0.5P. What is the price elasticity of demand at the point (Q = 20, P = 10)? Type the answer in decimal form rounded to the nearest hundredth. For example, if your answer is negative one half, type -0.50. If it is negative two thirds, type -0.67. If it is negative three and three quarters, type -3.75.

The demand equation for a product is q = 550 - 45p + p^2 where p is the price per unit (in dollars) and q is the quantity of units demanded (in thousands). Find the point elasticity of demand when p = 15. If this price of 15 is increased by 1 1/2 %, what is the approximate change in demand? The point elasticity of the demand equation for p = 15 is n = (Simplify your answer.)

The demand function for a certain make of ink-jet cartridge is $$p=-0.01 x^{2}-0.1 x+6$$,where $p$ is the unit price in dollars and $x$ is the quantity demanded each week, measured in units of a thousand. Compute the elasticity of demand and determine whether the demand is inelastic, unitary, or elastic when $x=10$.
