1 answer:
Furkat [3]4 years ago

Answer

Price elasticiy of demand for business travelers: -0.16

Price elasticity of demand for vacationers: -0.29

Explanation:

To find the price elasticy of demand (PED) using the midpoint method, we use the following formula:

PED = \frac{(Q2-Q1)/[(Q2+Q1)/2]}{(P2-P1)/[(P2+P1/2]}

Where Q2 and P2 are the new quantity demanded and new price respectively, and Q1 and P1 are the old quantity demanded and price.

Plugging the amounts into the formula we obtain the results of the answer.

Because both results are in absolute value less than one (0.16 and 0.29), we can say that the PED of tickets, for both vacationers and Business traveleres, is relatively inelastic. (Demand falls less in proportion to the change in price).

Answer:

Famous Jazz Pianist and a Nightclub Owner

The judge is likely to grant the injunction to prevent the pianist from performing at the restaurant.
