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.

I hope my answer helps you
