Solution

A relatively inelastic supply occurs when the price elasticity of supply is less than one. This means that the quantity supplied is not very responsive to changes in price. If the price increases by a certain percentage, the quantity supplied will increase by a smaller percentage. Conversely, if the price decreases by a certain percentage, the quantity supplied will decrease by a smaller percentage.
