Expert Answer
The 1st part (a) is completely correct.
Explanation: Total revenue (TR) is the product of price and quantity demanded. Such condition is satisfied in each row.
Part b:
A demand curve could be plotted with coordinates of quantity and price. Such coordinates are (1, 5), (2, 4), (3, 3), (4, 2), and (5, 1). These coordinates are connected by a line segment to get the required demand curve, DD.
Total revenue (TR) curve could be drawn with coordinates of quantity and TR. Such coordinates are (1, 5), (2, 8), (3, 9), (4, 8), and (5, 5). These coordinates are connected by a line segment to get the required TR curve, RR.
Demand is elastic.
As per the table, decreasing price increases TR at the initial stage and makes it moving in opposite direction. This is also the initial part of demand curve, which indicates that the demand is elastic.
