elastic
====
Elasticity is a measure of the sensitiveness of quantity demanded because of a change in price in proportional or percentage terms.
The given elasticity is 2 so the demand is elastic as it is above 1 because the quantity change is higher than the price change in proportional or percentage term.

The price elasticity of demand for a good produced by a monopolist O A. equals zero as long as the good has no close substitutes. O B. does not equal zero because every good has at least one good substitute for it. C. is always inelastic since the demand curve slopes down. O D. does not equal zero because there will always be some substitutes, however imperfect they may be.
