    A

    Explanation:

    The formula for price elasticity of supply is:

    Percentage change in quantity supplied : percentage change in price

    From $25 to $30

    % change in quantity = (500 - 350) / 350 = 42.86%

    % change in price = (30 - 25) / 25 = 20%

    PES = $42.86/$20 = 2.143,
