Answers
Answer:
Both the demand and supply curve show the relationship between price and the number of units demanded or supplied. Price elasticity is the ratio between the percentage change in the quantity demanded (Qd) or supplied (Qs) and the corresponding percent change in price. The price elasticity of demand is the percentage change in the quantity demanded of a good or service divided by the percentage change in the price. The price elasticity of supply is the percentage change in quantity supplied divided by the percentage change in price.
Elasticities can be usefully divided into three broad categories: elastic, inelastic, and unitary. An elastic demand or elastic supply is one in which the elasticity is greater than one, indicating a high responsiveness to changes in price. Elasticities that are less than one indicate low responsiveness to price changes and correspond to inelastic demand or inelastic supply. Unitary elasticities indicate proportional responsiveness of either demand or supply,.

- Price elasticity of demand measures how much the demand for a good changes with its price. If the demand changes with price, then the demand is elastic, while if it doesn't change then it is inelastic. Luxury goods and necessary goods are an example of each of these, respectively.
- The price elasticity of demand (PED) is calculated by dividing the percentage change in quantity demanded by the percentage change in price.
