So I am given the demand function of D(p) = 200,000 - 10,000p. Ihave to get the inverse demand function from it. After substitutingD(p) with q and rearranging, the answer is p = 20 - (q/10,000). I'mwondering how it is done.

Consider the inverse demand function q(p) = ap−b, where a > 0 and b > 0.

a) Find the slope of the function q(p) and determine whether it is negative.

b) Is q′(p) a constant, increasing, or decreasing function of p?

c) Find the price elasticity of demand, i.e., (− dq ⁄ dp)(p ⁄ q).

d) When demand is unit elastic, what is q(p)?

e) Solve the inverse demand function for p to get the demand function, p(q).
