The short-term demand for crude oil in Country A in 2008 can be approximated by q=f(p)=2,443,225p ^−0.07, where p represents the price of crude oil in dollars per barrel and q represents the per capita consumption of crude oil. Calculate and interpret the elasticity of demand when the price is $60cper barrel. The elasticity of demand for oil is

The consumer price index (CPI) measures how prices have changed for consumers. With 1995 as a reference of 100, a year with CPI = 150 indicates that consumer costs in that year were 1.5 times the 1995 costs. With labor data from a country for selected years from 1995 and projected to 2050, the rate of change of the CPI can be modeled by dC dt = 0.009t2 − 0.096t + 4.85
