7) The price elasticity of demand is
A) always positive, so there is no reason to consider the absolute value of the price elasticity of
demand.
B) always negative, but by convention, economists typically express the price elasticity of
demand as an absolute value.
C) always equal to -1, which by convention economists typically express as an absolute value, or
1.
D) always equal to zero, so there is no reason to consider the absolute value of the price elasticity
of demand.
