الگوی کاربرد:
[demand/supply/market] is inelastic; inelastic [demand/supply]

The company sells a product with relatively inelastic demand, so sales do not fall much when prices rise.
A vállalat olyan terméket árul, amelynek a kereslete viszonylag rugalmatlan, ezért az eladások nem esnek vissza jelentősen, amikor emelkednek az árak.
Supply can be inelastic in the short term if factories cannot quickly increase production.

اشتباه رایج:
In economics, inelastic does not mean the price cannot change; it means the quantity bought or supplied changes little in response.

inelastic [collision/interaction/scattering]
In an inelastic collision, the two carts moved together after impact.
Rugalmatlan ütközés esetén a két kiskocsi az ütközés után együtt mozgott.
Some of the kinetic energy in the crash was converted into heat and sound, making the collision inelastic.
