Q = 100 – P

Q = 100/P

Which of the following supply functions obeys the law of supply, where Q is quantity, P is price and I is income?

Chapter 2

Q = 10P

Q = 10 + 2P

Q = 10 – 2P

Q = 10 – P + .5I

If demand is inelastic, a one percent change in price will elicit a one percent change of the opposite sign in the quantity demanded.

If demand is elastic, a one percent change in price will elicit a greater than one percent change of the opposite sign in the quantity demanded.

A linear demand is unit elastic when Q = bP, for b a constant.
