Answer:
b. inelastic
c. Yes - it decreased
Explanation:
Elasticitiy of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price.
Elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded/ percentage change in price
= -2/4 = -0.5
The absolute value is 0.5
If the absolute value of the coffiecnet of elasticity of demand is less than one, demand is inelastic.
Demand is inelastic if a change in price has no effect on quantity demanded .
We can tell that the quantity demanded fell because of the negative sign in front of the percentage change in quantity demanded.
