For each scenario, calculate the income elasticity of demand, determine whether the good is inferior or normal, and classify the good's income elasticity. When ca answers to the nearest hundredth g the income elasticity of demand, use the midpoint formula.

Please be clear. Thank you! Problem 2 (30 points): Kirpa is trying to decide how many bours to work each week. Her utlity is given by the following function: U(C,H)CH3, where C represents weekly consumption and H represents weekly leisure bours. Her marginal utility with respect to consumption is MUc -2cH, and her marginal utility with respect to leisure is MUH 3C3H Assume Kirpa has some assets a that she uses for weekly consumption, so that her weekly budget constralnt...
