I only need answers for e and f. Problem 3: Suppose your utility function (i.e. level of satisfaction from consuming a and b) is given by ?(a, b)=?1/3?2/3 where a represents apple and b represents banana. Your total income is $500. The price of apple is $5 and the price of banana is $10.(a) Write your Budget Constraint (BC).(b) Write your Rational Choice (RC). (c) Find the consumption combination of bananas and apples that maximizes your satisfaction given your budget...

Multiple Choice Practice- Show work or provide short explanation 4. Charlie's utility function for apples (A) and bananas (B) is U(AB)-AB. The price of apples used to be S1 per apple and the price of bananas used to be $2 per banana. His incomse was $40 per day. If the price of apples increases to $2.25 and the price of bananas falls to S1.25, then in order to be able to afford his old bundle,...
