Answer:

c. -3.07

Explanation:

price elasticity of demand = % change in quantity demanded / % change in price

  • % change in quantity demanded = (27,000 - 20,000) / 20,000 = 0.35 = 35%
  • % change in price = (45,000 - $50,800) / $50,800 = -0.114 = 11.4%

price elasticity of demand = 35% / -11.4% = -3.07 or |3.07| in absolute terms

since the price elasticity is higher than |1|, then it is price elastic, which means that a 1% change in price will change the quantity demand in a higher proportion.

Crank

9% of annual rate of interest will she be earning on her investment .The price of borrowing money is reflected in the interest rate on a credit card.

<h3>What is annual  rate interest ?</h3>

The price of borrowing money is reflected in the interest rate on a credit card. We utilize the annual percentage rate for this (APR). On the majority of credit cards, you can avoid paying interest on purchases if you pay your balance in full each month by the due date.

The term annual percentage rate of charge refers to the interest rate for an entire year rather than just a monthly fee or rate as applied on a loan, mortgage loan, credit card, etc. It can also be referred to as a nominal APR or an effective APR. It is an annual rate of a finance charge.

To learn more about annual rate of interest refer to:
