Buck's economist friend Penny likes to measure everything in cents. She measures the inverse demand curve as P=10,000−100DP=10,000−100QD and the inverse supply curve as P=100SP=100QS . A) Find the slope of the inverse demand curve, and complete the price elasticity of demand at the market equilibrium using Buck's measurements.
