The price of a good increased from $3 to $5. Assuming the good's supply curve exhibits constant unitary price elasticity, calculate the percentage change in quantity supplied using the midpoint method. If necessary, round all intermediate calculations and your final answer to two decimal places.

Suppose price of good A increases from $10 to $12. Quantity demanded of good A decreases from 80 to 60. Use the midpoint method to calculate the price elasticity of demand for good A. (Round your answer to 1 decimal place.)

5.1 Price Elasticity of Demand and Price Elasticity of Supply Question The table shows the price and quantity demanded for floor mats. Using the Midpoint Method, what is the price elasticity of demand between points B and C? Note: Remember to take the absolute value of the result and round to the nearest hundredth. Rounding should be done at the end of your calculation. Point Price Quantity A $10 500 B $13 480 C $16 460 D $19 440 E $22 420
