(increase/decrease) (b)At a given price p, as oil becomes more expensive (po increases), does the (own) price elasticity of demand for public transportation increase / decrease / stay the same? (c) Calculate the cross-price elasticity of public transportation demand with respect to the oil price po, at the point p = 1 and po = 2. Are the two goods (public transportation and oil) substitutes or complements, or unrelated?
