Answer:
a. students have a more elastic demand for newspapers than does the general public.
Explanation:
We can make this conclusion ased on the information we have about elastic demand.
A more elastic demand means that a consumer (in this case the students), are more sensitive to price and so desire things (the magazine) more as they become less expensive. In other words, their demand can quickly change negatively if there's a degree change in price.

<span>To calculate the absolute price elasticity in this case, the expression is the quantity demanded change divided by the change in the price, both expressed as percentages. For the sandwiches, the demand dropped by (50/250), or 20% (0.20), while the price increased by (1.00/2.00), or 50% (0.50). The expression, then, would be (0.20/0.50), or a price elasticity of demand of 0.40.</span>
