Answer:
0.085
Explanation:
The computation of the expected change in the quantity of teenage is shown below:
As we know that
Price elasticity of supply = Percentage change in quantity supplied ÷ Percentage change in price
where,
Percentage change in price is
= (p1 + p2) ÷ 2 ÷ (p2 - p1)
= ($7.25 + $8.75) ÷ 2 ÷ ($8.75 - $7.25)
= 8 ÷ 0.5
= 16
Now the change in the quantity of supplied is
= 1.36 ÷ 16
= 0.085
