Let
z----------------- > Price Elasticity
x----------------- > % Change in Quantity
y----------------- > % Change in Price
we Know that
Price Elasticity = (% Change in Quantity) / (% Change in Price)----> z=x/y
z=-2
y=-10%
x= <span>?
</span>z=x/y---------------- > x=z*y=(-2)*(-10)=20 %
% Change in Quantity=20%
Part A) how many pizzas will he sell if he cuts his price by 10%?
He will sell (500 +20 %)----------> 500*1.2=600 pizzas per week
the answer part A is 600 pizzas per week

<span>initial revenue per week
</span>500 pizzas*</span><span>$20 =$10000
final revenue per week
(500 pizzas+20%) *(</span>$20-10%)=600 pizzas*$18=$10800
$10800-$10000=$800
<span>
the answer part B is
His revenue </span><span>will increase $800 per week</span>
