My utility is given by u(x1, x2) = 2x194x2-2 + In(x1) + [min{x1, x2)] + 2x2 + x1!! True, False, or Cannot Be Determined: When P1 = $2,P2 = $4, and I = $100, my optimal consumption bundle is (x1,x2) = (25,15).
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....
1. (24 total points) Suppose a consumer’s utility function is given by U(X,Y) = X1/2*Y1/2. Also, the consumer has $72 to spend, and the price of Good X, PX = $4. Let Good Y be a composite good whose price is PY = $1. So on the Y-axis, we are graphing the amount of money that the consumer has available to spend on all other goods for any given value of X. a) (2 points) How much X and Y...
