Answer:

E=-4.0746

Explanation:

Using the midpoint method, Lauren's income elasticity of demand for new outfits is determined by the change in income multiplied by the average number of outfits, divided by the change in the number of outfits multiplied by the average income:

E=\frac{\Delta I*O_{avg}}{\Delta O*I_{avg}}\\E=\frac{(37,000-30,000)*\frac{20+19}{2}}{(19-20)*\frac{37,000+30,000}{2}}\\E=-4.0746

Her income elasticity of demand for new outfits is -4.0746.
