If the coefficient of demand for the SUV is 0.75 this means that it has a relatively inelastic demand since it is less than. In other words, there is only a little alteration in demand when prices change.
So when the price of SUV rise by 15%, and it has a coefficient of 0.75, we can anticipate only 11.25% decrease in its demand. This is for the reason that the SUVs do not have many substitutes for it.
So to solve:
(x/15%) = 0.75
Then simply solve for x:
 x = (0.75)(0.15) = 11.25%

Terry drove 310 miles in 5 hours at a constant speed. How long would it take him to drive 403 miles at the same speed?
NeX [460]
Well, first, find-out how fast he was going the first time, by dividing 310 by 5. This gives you 62 mph. Now, divide 403 miles by 62 miles per hour in order to find-out how long it would take him to drive 403 miles, if he is constantly doing 62 mph. Your final answer is six-and-a-half hours.
