Question One A: Price Elasticity of Demand

The formula for point elasticity of demand is Ep=ΔQΔP×PQE_p = \frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta P} \times \frac{P}{Q}.
The formula for arc elasticity of demand is Ep=Q2−Q1P2−P1×P1+P2Q1+Q2E_p = \frac{Q_2 - Q_1}{P_2 - P_1} \times \frac{P_1 + P_2}{Q_1 + Q_2}.

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