Economics Worksheet
Consider the following pairs of goods. For which of the two goods would you expect the demand to be more price elastic? Why?
water or diamonds
insulin or nasal decongestant spray
gasoline over the course of a week or gasoline over the course of a year
In this situation, diamonds are the more luxurious item, whereas water is an absolute necessity. Because of their nature, diamonds would have much more elasticity in price because their demand may change much more drastically than water.
Nasal decongestant spray would have the more elastic price because there are many options and substitutes. However, insulin does not have any close substitutes and so it would not be as elastic.
Gasoline becomes more elastic the longer the time duration is being examined. As with other products, elasticity increases as time does. Thus, gasoline over the course of a year is more elastic.

Students then move to advisory to discuss what they learned from the principal, then begins first period science class. Science is tutorial based, but often broken up into groups of four for lab and experimentation work. Math lab includes a number of different activities that change out regularly. Following math, the students meet for Art class, which varies daily in activities, social and spatial development. Lunch and a brief recess follows. First class after
