    Finally, found a great economics teacher, and I guess now I will definitely cover all major and critical concepts if the recording lectures continue.

    For those of you who are struggling with Economics, I absolutely recommend that you watch Dr. Azevedo's videos. He is a FANTASTIC economic's professor and you WILL be better off by watching them!

    Thank you!
    My teacher gave me this other formula for percentage change: (New - Old) / Old
    I did a question using the two diff formulas but got diff answers though..
    So I am a bit confused

    • @DrAzevedoEcon

      If you'll go to the 23-minute mark, you'll see me discuss why this formula will not work well for calculating elasticity. It works fine for calculating the percent change in many situations, but not with elasticity. However, if your teacher has told you to use that formula, you should use it.

    How do you find the average sir I'm little bit confused there....

    • @DrAzevedoEcon
      @DrAzevedoEcon  3 месяца назад

      Sorry to be slow in replying! Add the two numbers and then divide by two. The average is also the midpoint between the two numbers.

    Am confuse pls help me solve this Price 150. Qty 350. Price 250 qty 300

    • @DrAzevedoEcon
      @DrAzevedoEcon  Год назад +2

      % change in Q: 50/325 = 2/13
      % change in P: 100/200 = 1/2
      PED = 2/13 divided by 1/2 = 4/13

    What if they give us a formula: (x/f(x)) * f'(x)?

    • @DrAzevedoEcon
      @DrAzevedoEcon  10 месяцев назад

      This is the formula for a point elasticity, which means your class is using calculus. You should watch my intermediate microeconomics lecture on elasticity.

    So nobody really talking bout how he writing n calculating backwards 😳 👀

    • @DrAzevedoEcon

      I'm actually just writing normally, but the image is reversed. I'm writing on a large piece of glass with the camera on the other side. From the point of view of the camera, the writing is backward. Once the image is reversed, the writing appears normal.
