Answer:

The answer is:

Inelastic

Elastic

Step-by-step explanation:

Nita’s demand for Coca-Cola will be relatively more inelastic i.e his demand will not be sensitive to price. Increasing the price of Coca-cola will not make Nita to change its taste because he is a devoted Coca-Cola consumer.

Becky’s demand will be relatively more elastic because he has an option to choose between Pepsi and Coca-cola.

Any increase in price of Coca-cola will make Becky to shift to Pepsi.
