A study by the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) examined the responsiveness of consumers to changes in gasoline prices. The study determined that elasticity of demand for gasoline ranges from 0.21 to 0.75. According to the NBER study, what will happen if a major supplier of oil cuts production, causing the price of gasoline to increase greatly?

Gasoline consumption will decrease by a small amount.

Explanation:

A coefficient of elasticity of less than one indicates that demand is inelastic.

Inelastic demand means that there's little or no change in quantity demanded when there's a change in the price of a product.

Quantity demanded has little or no sensitivity to changes in price.

If the coefficient of elasticity is greater than one, demand is elastic.

Elastic demand is when a small change in price has a greater effect on the quantity demanded.

If the coefficient of elasticity were equal to one, it means that demand is unit elastic.

Unit elastic demand means a change in price leads to the same proportional change on quantity demanded.

b. a single paragraph.

a paragraph is a series of sentences that are organized and make sense, and are all related to a single topic . almost every piece of writing you do that is longer than a few sentences should be organized into paragraphs. this is because paragraphs show a reader where the subdivisions of an essay begin and end, and thus the reader see the organization of the essay into subjects in order to be able to understand its main points.
