Here are the solutions to the questions.

Question One A: Price Elasticity of Demand

Given points:
Point A: PA=60P_A = 60, QA=20Q_A = 20
Point B: PB=15P_B = 15, QB=40Q_B = 40

I. The price elasticity of demand at point A (Point Elasticity)

Step 1: Calculate the change in quantity (ΔQ\Delta Q) and change in price (ΔP\Delta P) between the two points.

ΔQ=QB−QA=40−20=20\Delta Q = Q_B - Q_A = 40 - 20 = 20
