The graph shows Tom’s budget line and indifference curve for good x and y. The price of good x is $40 . If he uses all of his income on good Y , then 20 units of y will be consumed. If all income is spent on good x then 4 units will be consumed. What is the marginal rate of substitution of good y for x at the point where the indifference curve is tangent to the budget line?

7. We know that well-defined preferences over two goods have the properties that (i) indifference curves are negatively sloped, and (ii) that indifference curves are convex (so that chords between two points on the indifference curve lie in the set {(c,y) such that (c,y) (co, yo)) when (co,yo) is a point on the indifference curve). Suppose that good y is "clean air" and good c is consumption of all other goods This problem gets you to determine what these two...

The following graph shows three indifference curves and budget constraints for a consumer. The consumer is initially consuming at point A, on the indifference curve Ui and is constrained by the budget constraint BC1 (indicated by the blue line) Bc3 10 Ul BC BC 10 Suppose the government provides this consumer a subsidy on good x, which effectively lowers the price of x. This is represented by a of BC1 out away from the origin. The result is this consumer...
