Answer:

d. increase by 40 units

Explanation:

We post the increments in the formula and check;

Qd`` = 60 - 60(p + 2) + 2(Y + 80)

Qd`` = 60 - 120 - 60p + 160 + 2Y

Qd`` = 100 - 60p + 2Y

Qd   =  60 - 60p + 2Y

we subtract one from another and the difference is the incremental oor decremental that arise as a result of the changes:

100 - 60 - 60p - (-60p) + 2y - 2y = 40
