Answer:

Buy 7% less houses

Explanation:

Income elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in income

Income elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded/ percentage change in income

1.40 = percentage change in quantity demanded/ 5%

Percentage change in quantity demanded = 1.4 × 5% = 7%

Because the coefficient of elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is income elastic. This means quantity demanded is responsive to changes in income. A fall in income would reduce the quantity demanded.

VikaD [51]
The answer to the question above is "brand names cause consumers to be more sensitive to product differences" based on the result of Roberto's taste test. In the blind test, Roberto did not feel the unsavory flavor from the generic store-coke and he prefers that generic store-coke. This test proves that Roberto's taste is distracted by the brand.
