Question
Mapoob sapling learning Use the demand curve to answer the questions, based on the midpoint method. Remember to include a negative sign when needed Calculate the percentage change in quantity demanded moving from point A to point B Price ($) Number 40 16 15 Calcula between points A and te the percentage change in price Number Calculate the price elasticity of demand 0 50 0 150 200 250 300 350 400 450 500 Number There is a hint available!

1) Percentage change in quantity demanded moving from Point A to point B:-
(Change in Quantity Demanded/Original Quantity) =(100/200)=50%
2) Percentage change in price moving from Point A to Point B
(Change in Price/Original Price)=(-5/15)= -33%
3) Price elasticity of demand
Percentage change in Quantity Demanded/Percentage change in Price=(50/-33)= -1.515%
