diagram
below
illustrates
two
parallel
demand
curves
for
a
commodity
and
a
supply
curve.
Price
($)
B
A
Q
Assume
that
the
slope
of
the
supply
curve
is
less
than
1,
which
of
the
following
is
true:
(a)
The
price
elasticity
of
supply
for
this
commodity
is
the
same
at
B
as
at
A
(b)
The
price
elasticity
of
supply
for
this
commodity
is
the
same
at
B
as
at
A
and
greater
than
1
(c)
The
price
elasticity
of
supply
for
this
commodity
is
greater
at
A
than
at
B
(d)
The
price
elasticity
of
supply
for
this
commodity
is
greater
at
B
than
at
A
Question
1b.

points
In
the
diagram
below,
D1
and
D2
represent
the
demand
curves
for

D1
is
more
inelastic
than
D2
(b)
D2
is
more
inelastic
than
D1
(c)
The
elasticity
of
demand
for
both
curves
is

equals
1
while
the
elasticity
of
demand
for
D2
is
