If the Demand for a good in linear in its price, then ... the elasticity of Demand is larger (in absolute value) for low prices the elasticity of Demand is larger (in absolute value) for high prices. the elasticity of Demand is the same along the Demand function irrespective of the price. This is what "linear in price" means.
Explain why the price elasticity of demand is generally a negative number, except in the cases where the demand curve is perfectly elastic or perfectly inelastic. What would be implied by a positive price elasticity of demand?
i. ii. iii. Suppose the demand function for a product is given by (3000-9 where p is in hundreds of RM and q is the number of tons. Determine the point elasticity of demand when the quantity demanded is 6 tons. is demand elastic, is it inelastic, or does it have unit elasticity at this point? Approximate the percentage change in price if the demand of 6 tons is decreased by 3%.

The market price for a bulgogi was $3.00. However, it is now $6.00. Use the midpoint method to a) calculate the price elasticity of demand (na) for bulgogi. b) c) increases by 20%, how much will the quantity demanded change by? How sensitive is the quantity demanded for bulgogi to price changes? Please explain briefly. For this question use the price elasticity of demand calculated in part (a). If the price of bulgogi
