To calculate the price elasticity of demand, we use the formula: First, let's calculate the percentage change in quantity demanded:- Initial quantity demanded: 5 times- New quantity demanded: 4 times Next, calculate the percentage change in price:- Initial price: \ 50 Now, plug these values into the elasticity formula: The price elasticity of Mimi's demand curve is (ignoring the negative sign which indicates the inverse relationship between price and quantity demanded). Therefore, the correct answer is:0.8
