Answer:

The price elasticity of demand is -10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

p_1,p_2 = 50,40

q_1,q_2 = 400,500

Solving (a): The coefficient of price elasticity of demand (k)

This is calculated as:

k = \frac{\triangle q}{\triangle p}

So, we have:

k = \frac{500 - 400}{40 - 50}

k = \frac{100}{-10}

k = -10

<em>Because |k| > 0, then we can conclude that the company made a wise decision.</em>
