Suppose an individual’s utility function is u=x11/2, x21/2. Let p1=4, p2=5, and income equal $200. With a general equation and general prices, derive the equal marginal principle. Graphically illustrate equilibrium and disequilibrium conditions and how consumers can reallocate their consumption to maximize utility. What is the optimal amount of x1 consumed? What is the optimal amount of x2 consumed? What is the marginal rate of substitution at the optimal amounts of x1 and x2? As functions of p1, p2, and...

Jack’s utility is given by u(x1, x2) = x13x22. If I = $200, P1 = $20 and P2 = $4, how many units of x1 will Jack consume to maximize his utility?
Luke's choice behavior can be represented by the utility function u(x1,x2)= x1 + x2
Luke's choice behavior can be represented by the utility function u(x1,x2)= x1 + x2.The prices of x1 and x2 are denoted as p1 and p2, and his income is m. 1. Draw at least three indifference curves and find its slope (i.e. MRS). Is the MRS changing depending on the points of (x1, x2) at which it is evaluated, or constant? 2. Draw a budget constraint assuming that p1 < P2. Find the optimal bundle (x1*,x2*) as a function of income and prices. 3....
