Respuesta :

Answer:

Elasticity does not have a unit because it is a pure number

Demand is Elastic

TR decrease due to the demand been elastic. a rise in tuition fee causes the total revenue to decrease

Explanation:

Tuition fees increment  by 25%

Student enrollment decreases by 3.5%

Price elasticity of demand=%change in quantity demanded / %change in price

                                            =  -3.5/ 2.5

                                             = -1.40
