Answer: unitary price elastic

Step-by-step explanation:

A good is unitary price elastic if a change in price leads to the same proportional change in quantity demanded.

The coefficient of a good with unitary elasticity is 1 .

Coefficient of elasticity = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price

= 5% / 5% = 1

I hope my answer helps you
