Answer: elastic

Explanation:

Elastic demand is a demand that occurs when the quantity demanded for a product or service results in a greater percentage change when there is a change in price.

For example, when there's a fall in price, this will lead to large change in quantity demanded for the good. Since there's an increase in the quantity demanded, it will lead to increase in revenue.

Why are entrepreneurs considered both spark plugs and catalysts of the free enterprise economy?
Tanya [424]
<span>Entrepreneurs are considered to be both spark plugs and catalysts of the free enterprise economy because of a number of reasons. Everybody benefits and profits when an entrepreneur becomes successful. When an entrepreneur opens his or her search for profits, the effects would be a chain of events where new products, greater competition, more production, higher quality, and lower prices for consumers can be observed. An entrepreneur is said to be a spark plug in the free-market for there is that vision of providing a product or a service that people are willing to pay for, combined with the ability to produce that product or service at a cost below the market sales price which propels him/her to take action. Capitalism will not work if it were not for the entrepreneurs who take the risks and start the businesses that produce the goods and services we all enjoy.</span>

Diminishing returns are a reason that fixed costs remain constant. the marginal cost curve is upward sloping. the average fixed
Molodets [167]

Answer:

the marginal cost curve is upward sloping.

Explanation:

Utility can be defined as any satisfaction or benefits a customer derives from the use of a product or service.

This ultimately implies that, any satisfaction or benefits a customer derives from the use of a product or service is generally referred to as a utility.

Basically, the marginal utility of goods and services is the additional satisfaction that a consumer derives from consuming or buying an additional unit of a good or service.

For example, buying a candy stick and eating it may satisfy your cravings but eating another one (an additional or extra unit) wouldn't give you as much satisfaction as the first due to diminishing marginal utility.

In Economics, the law of diminishing marginal utility states that as the unit of a good or service consumed by an individual increases, the additional satisfaction he or she derives from consuming additional units would start decreasing or diminishing as the units of good or service consumed increases.

Marginal cost can be defined as the additional or extra cost that is being incurred by a company as a result of the production of an additional unit of a product or service.

Generally, marginal cost can be calculated by dividing the change in production costs by the change in level of output or quantity. A marginal cost curve is upward sloping because of the law of diminishing returns.
