Answer» <P> Solution :`{:(P_(X),Q_(X)=1400//P_(X),P_(X)Q_(X)),(6,233.3,1400),(5,280,1400),(4,350,1400),(3,466.6,1400),(2,700,1400),(1,1400,1400):}`THUS, total expenditure remains unchanged at Rs. 1400 when `P_(X)` falls from Rs. 6 to Rs. 1. (i) Since expenditure remains constant to any change in `P_(X)`, the value of ED = 1. (ii) DEMAND curve will be a rectangular hyperbola. |
