Answer:

2.33 ; demand for movies is elastic

Explanation:

The computation of the price elasticity of demand is presented below:

= (change in quantity demanded ÷ average of quantity demanded) ÷ (percentage change in price ÷ average of price)  

where,  

Change in quantity demanded is

= Q2 - Q1

= 30 - 15

= 15

And, an average of quantity demanded is

= (30 + 15) ÷ 2

= 22.50

Change in price would be

= P2 - P1

= $8 - $6

= $2

And, the average of price is

= ($8 + $6) ÷ 2

= 7

So, after solving this, the price elasticity of demand is 2.33

Since it is not given by which method we have to calculate it. So, we use the mid point formula.

Based on the above calculation, we concluded that the demand for movies is elastic
