Answer:

0.60

Explanation:

The midpoint formula is used to calculate elasticity by using average percentage in both price and quantity.

The formula is given below:

Percentage change in quantity =<u>  (Q2 -Q1)     </u>   x  100

                                                        (Q2 + Q1) / 2

Percentage change in price = <u> (P2 -P1)     </u>   x  100

                                                   (P2 + P1) / 2

Elasticity =<u> Percentage change in price__</u>

                 Percentage change in quantity

Inserting the data:

Percentage change in quantity =<u> (30  -20)    </u>  x  100  =    <u>10</u> x 100  = 40%

                                                       (30 + 20) /2                   25

Percentage change in price  = <u>($20 - $10)</u> x 100    =  <u>10</u>  x 100   =  66.6%

                                                    ($20 + $10) /2             15

Elasticity of supply = <u>40%</u>

                                  66.6%

                                  = 0.60
