second question
The demand for petrol rises from 500 to 600 Barrels when the price of a particular scooter is reduced from ETB 25,000 to ETB 22,000. Find out the cross elasticity of demand for the two. What is the nature of their relationship?
With reference to price elasticity of demand, answer the following questions: 3.4.1 Indicate what the two (2) main determinants are that price elasticity of demand depends on. (2) 3.4.2 With the aid of a diagram (draw the diagram), illustrate and explain what a linear demand curve is, where exactly the top of the curve is and where the bottom of the curve is, and how elasticity values (coefficients) vary on the curve from being infinitely (perfectly) elastic to unit elastic and finally to completely (perfectly) inelastic.
