Given the demand function, P = A*Q^1/E; where p = price, q = quantity demanded, E = elasticity and , A = constant... How do I show E is constant? I tried to use the formula E = dQ/dP * P/Q, but ended up with the following. E = dQ/dP * P/Q or 1/E = dP/dQ * Q/P E = d[(P/A)^E]/dP * P/Q E = [(1/A^E)*(E*P^(E-1)] * P / (P/A)^E [NOTE: P/P = 1] E = (E)*(P^E-1) / (A^E) * A^E [Note: A^E/A^E = 1] E = E*P^E-1
