- Using the following equation for the demand for a good or service, calculate the price elasticity of demand (using the point form), cross-price elasticity with good x and income elasticity. Q=82P+0.10I+Px Q is quantity demanded, P is the product price. P1 is the price of a related good, and I is income. Assume that P= $10, I = 100, and Px = 20.arrow_forward(Other Elasticity Measures) Complete each of the following sentences: a. The income elasticity of demand measures, for a given price, the __________ in quantity demanded divided by the __________ income from which it resulted. b. If a decrease in the price of one good causes a decrease in demand for another good, the two goods are __________. c. If the value of the cross-price elasticity of demand between two goods is approximately zero, they are considered __________.arrow_forwardAs the price of good X rises from 10 to 12, the quantity demanded of good Y rises from 100 units to 114 units.
