QUESTION 5 Reshad's preferences over goods 1 and 2 are given by the following utility function: Uq1. 42) Reshad's income is $60 and the prices are given by p1-3 and p2-2. Select all that applies: 1+q1 42 41 a. Marginal rate of substitution for his preferences is given by MRS12 When he consumes zero amount of good 1, his MRS is equal to 1. c. It is optimal for him to consume 20 units of good 1. @dㆎt is optimal...
1.Suppose a consumer had a utility function given by: U= 9X + 2Y. If the price of Good X (Px) is $8 and the price of Good Y is $4then what is the utility maximizing quantity of Good X the consumer will purchase with a budget of $32? 2.

- Mordecai consumes only coffee (C) and video games (G), and his utility function is U(C,G)=C1/2G1/2. The price of coffee is p, and the price of video games is 10. Mordecai’s income is m. In this problem, you will find Mordecai’s utility maximizing combination of coffee and video games. a.Suppose m=100 and p=10. How much of each good does Mordecai consume? Draw a graph showing his budget constraint and indifference curve passing through the chosen bundle. (2 points) b.Suppose m=100...
The utility function is given by U(x, y) = xy2 . (a) Write out the demand functions for goods x and y in terms of I, px, and py. (b) What is the maximum utility the consumer can achieve as a function of I, px, and py? (c) What is the minimum the consumer needs to spend to achieve a level of utility U as a function of px, and py? (d) The initial income is $576, initial prices are...
