  • When the demand curve is relatively flatter, then demand is

    Question: When the demand curve is relatively flatter, then demand is

    Options:

    Relatively inelastic
    Relatively elastic
    Unitary elastic
    All

    ✅ Explanation: A flatter demand curve indicates that a small change in price leads to a larger change in quantity demanded. This is the characteristic of elastic demand.

    📌 🔑Key Points:
    -The demand curve is a concept in economics that plots the price of a product or service against how much of the product or service people buy.
    -Typically, the lower the price of an item, the more people buy.
    -However, that relationship varies depending on the item.
    -An elastic demand curve means that a change in price has a large effect on buying, while an inelastic demand curve means that a price change has less effect on buying.
    Additional Information
    -Marginal revenue is related to the price elasticity of demand — the responsiveness of quantity demanded to a change in price.
    -When marginal revenue is positive, demand is elastic; and when marginal revenue is negative, demand is inelastic.
    -On a graph with both a demand curve and a marginal revenue curve, demand will be elastic at all quantities where marginal revenue is positive.
    -Demand is unit elastic at the quantity where marginal revenue is zero.                 
    -If the elasticity of demand is less than zero then it denotes that the change in quantity demand is opposite to the change in its own price.
    -It means that the slope of the demand curve is negative at this point and the marginal revenue is also negative due to negative slope.
