The answer would be that there are few other places to purchase soda on campus; competition (or lack thereof) can play a big factor in determining price elasticity.

While nutrition information can shift consumers' preferences, we have no indication within the question of whether or not the students are well-informed of the impact of their drinking choices.

As for the third option, we are not given any information on the students' budgets, and no information with which to infer this, either. We only have information on their spending as it is related to soda, not as compared to other purchases.

Finally, given that the quantity sold does not change much despite the change in price, we can conclude that this price curve is relatively inelastic, in which case the price elasticity of demand would be closer to zero than one. This effectively rules out the last answer.

Jerry bought some pears at the store. he paid 4.59$ for 5.4 pounds of pears what is the unit rate?
Viefleur [7K]
To find the unit rate you will take the price Jerry paid and divide it by the amount in pounds of pears.

Unit rate = $4.59/5.4 lb
Unit rate = $0.85

You can check your answer by multiplying the amount of pears Jerry purchased by the unit price to get the total price. 
(5.4 lb of pairs)($0.85) = $4.59
