ELASTIC: In general, if changes in variable A cause changes in variable B, then the relative change in B is greater than the relative change in A. In other words, small changes in variable A cause relatively larger changes in variable B. An elastic relationship between two variables is a very responsive, or stretchable, relationship. You should compare elastic with inelastic.
