Answer:

The price of tee times needs to be decreased by 6.67%.

Explanation:

The manager wants to increase the number of tee times sold by 10 percent.

The price elasticity of demand for tee times is –1.5.

Percentage change in price of tee times to increase the demand by 10%

Price elasticity of demand = \frac{\% \Delta Q}{\% \Delta P}

-1.5 = \frac{10 \%}{\% \Delta P}

\% \Delta P = \frac{10}{-1.5}\% \Delta P = -6.67 \%
