Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

The price elasticity of demand for attending Atlanta Braves baseball games is -0.57.

There was a decrease in demand by 11.4%.

This may have been caused by the increase in price.

Price elasticity of demand = [tex]\frac{\% \Delta Q}{\% \Delta P}[/tex]

-0.57 = [tex]\frac{-11.4 \%}{\% \Delta P}[/tex]

ΔP = 20 %

So there is a price increase of 20%.
