Substituting this value into the price elasticity of demand


5. The linear demand function for a product is given by: 

Q P = − 50 5

Where Q is quantity demand and P is price of the product 

a. Calculate the slope of the demand curve (i.e. the marginal demand) 

b. Substituting this value into the price elasticity of demand formula we obtain ∈=

c. From this formula derive the price elasticity of demand at P = 10, P = 5 and P = 0.

 At P = 10:
