The price elasticities of demand of sugar-free gummy bears and of ordinary gummy bears is -0.8 and -2.3 respectively.

<h3>How to calculate price elasticity</h3>

Change in price of gummy bears = $2. 60 to $3

Elasticity of demand of sugar-free gummy bears =

[(273-379 / (273+379)/2] ÷ [(3.00-2.60)/(3.00+2.60) / 2]

= [-18/166] / [0.4/2.8]

= -0.10843373493975 / 0.14285714285714

= - 0.75903614457826

Approximately, -0.8

Elasticity of demand of regular gummy bears:

Sugar free = [(273-379) / (273+379)/2] ÷ (3.00 +2.60) / 2]

= [-106/326] / [0.4/2.8]

= -0.32515337423312 / 0.14285714285714

= -2.2760736196318

Approximately, -2.3

How does the tilt of the earths axis cause seasonal change
lidiya [134]

Answer: Okay so. As the earth revolves around the sun, it stays tilting in the same way (yes it moves a little but not drastically for you to worry about) As it moves around the sun, the parts that were closer to the sun/were more exposed are shifting as the earth revolves around. This causes the areas that were currently in the summer months to cool down into the fall and winter months. That also means that the areas that were experiencing winter are now going into the spring and summer months.

Example: as China goes into the fall and winter months, America is going into spring and summer.
