If a price-demand equation is solved for p, then price is expressed as p= g(x) and x becomes the independent variable. g(x) Use the given price-demand In this case, it can be shown that the elasticity of demand is given by E(x) = xg'(x) equation to find the values of x for which demand is elastic and for which demand is inelastic. p = g(x)=360-0.1x If a price-demand equation is solved for p, then price is expressed as p= g(x) and x becomes the independent variable. g(x) Use the given price-demand In this case, it can be shown that the elasticity of demand is given by E(x) = xg'(x) equation to find the values of x for which demand is elastic and for which demand is inelastic. p = g(x)=360-0.1x
