Based on the price elasticity of demand for oranges, and the quantity produced, the impact on the price of oranges as a result of Hurricane Irma would be an increase by 14%.

<h3>What would be the price of the oranges?</h3>

The price elasticity of demand is found as:

= Change in quantity / Change in price

As we have the elasticity measure already, we can find the change in price:

-1.5 = - 21% / Change in price

Change in price x -1.5 = -21%

Change in price = -21% / -1.5

= 14%

The price will increase by 14%.

The other ones don't make sense, radiant energy is electromagnetic and gravitational energy. You can't tell how many planets are in its solar system from only this information. The number of galaxies is also impossible to tell. The only other one that could perhaps make sense is the distance to the center of its galaxy. But, this again is disproved as one star can't tell you the position of the center.
