@rongmon , let's discuss this paper here ! :-)

[neha:)]

I'm getting 2nd as Price of A should fall, and B should rise..but there's no such option! Pls discuss

[neha:)]

6th is (a). I tried putting the options in the equation of elasticity, and then compared the absolute value of resulting figure. Only in part (a) did I get a figure whose absolute value was less than one.
