Could you please help me understand why the correct answer is what it is for each of these true/fase statments? I have tried this problem a couple times and I keep getting it incorrect. If you could show you you used your calculation solution to determine elasticity, that would be very helpful. Thanks!

Before an increase in excise duty on tea, 800 people out of a sample of 1000 were consumers of tea. After the increase in duty, 800 people were consumers of tea in a sample of 1200 persons. Find whether there is significant decrease in the consumption of tea after the increase in duty. LOS 5%.

When the price of movie tickets in a certain town was increased, the movie-theaters' revenues increased. This suggests that the demand for movie tickets in that town has a price-elasticity of demand that is: Group of answer choices 1. -1.4 2. 1.0 3. .45 4. 4.5
Given a 10% fall in petroleum price and a 6.2 percent rise in daily wage paid to hired labour used for the production of rice. Estimate the net effect of these changes on the production of rice, given that the elasticities of production due to petroleum price and dialy wage are 1.15 and 1.25 respectively.
