After watching the Section 5.3 Review and Section 6.2 Review videos I have realized that gas price changes are inelastic. Inelastic demand is “when percent change in quantity demanded is less than percent change in price‚ so price elasticity is less than 1 in absolute value” (Hubbard & O’Brien‚ 2015b). This means that when a price of a product changes‚ such as gas‚ it does not affect the demand of that good or service. I feel that consumers will be responsive to the price change when these fluctuations

INEALSTIC DEMAND Student Name Institution Inelastic Demand Inelastic demand is a situation whereby a one per cent change in price of a commodity leads to less than one per cent change in quantity demanded by the consumers. Products that exhibit inelastic demand have an almost constant demand no matter the change in prices. Figure 1: Diagram illustrating inelastic demand As shown from diagram above‚ the price changes from P1 to P2 and quantity fall from Q1 to Q2. The

They have either developed highly differentiated products or brands or they have achieved a monopoly on a market or product category. (Tedesco‚ 2011) If you look at Apple they

How Does the Change of Mass Affect the Rate at Which an Elastic Powered Car Accelerates? Research Question: How does the change of mass affect the acceleration of the Lego Car powered by elastic? Hypothesis: it was thought that the more weight added to the body of the Lego Car would slow down the initial acceleration‚ but the car would travel a longer distance due to increased momentum‚ which might overcome kinetic friction. Rationale: Some reasons of why that it was thought
