Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Price elasticity of demand is calculated using the formula: (percentage change in quantity demanded) / (percentage change in price). Without specific quantity data, we assume a linear demand curve and calculate the elasticity using the midpoint formula. The correct choice is based on typical elasticity calculations for small price changes.
