Answer:

3.05

1.38

0.725

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.

Arc elasticity of demand = midpoint change in quantity demanded / midpoint change in price  

Midpoint change in quantity demanded = change in quantity demanded / average of both demands

Price $25-$20

change in quantity demanded  = 40 - 20 = 20

average of both demands = (40 + 20) /2 = 30

Midpoint change in quantity demanded = 20/30 = 0.67

midpoint change in price = change in price / average of both price

change in price = $25 - $20 = $5

average of both price = ($25 + $20) / 2 = 22.5

Price $20-$15

change in quantity demanded  = 60 - 40 = 20

average of both demands = (60 + 40) /2 = 50

Midpoint change in quantity demanded = 20/50 = 0.4

midpoint change in price = change in price / average of both price

change in price = $20 - $15 = $5

average of both price = ($15 + $20) / 2 = 17.5

midpoint change in price = 5 / 17.5 = 0.29

0.4/0.29 = 1.38

Price elasticity of demand = 0.67 / 0.22 = 3.05

change in quantity demanded  = 80 - 60 = 20

average of both demands = (80 + 60) /2 = 70

Midpoint change in quantity demanded = 20/70 = 0.29

midpoint change in price = change in price / average of both price

change in price = $15 - $10 = $5

average of both price = ($15 + $10) / 2 = 12.5

5/12.5 = 0.4

insens350 [35]

law on property rights is defined as the state government granting power, license, or real property to a private individual or individuals using a land patent

A property's legal ownership and permitted uses are governed by property right law. When it comes to land, it has been noted that theft is common. People who purchase properties often lose them to thieves when they are resold to someone else who is unaware that the property has already been sold to someone else. The property right law was established to stop this circumstance from occurring frequently so that the owner of a plot of land would have the legal right to claim ownership for it and use it for any purpose he desired without fear of it being taken by someone else.
