उत्तर

Demand, D =`12/"P"`

Rate of change of demand = `("dD")/("dP")`

=`"d"/("dP")(12/"P")`

=`12"d"/("dP")("P"^-1)`

= `12((-1)"P"^-2)`

=`12((-1)/"P"^2)`

= `(-12)/"P"^2`

When price P = 2,
Rate of change of demand,`(("dD")/("dP"))_("P" = 2)`

= `(-12)/(2)^2`

= – 3
∴ When price is 2, Rate of change of demand is – 3
Here, rate of change of demand is negative
∴ demand would fall when the price becomes ₹ 2.
