2. Let U (91, 92) be a utility function that represents a particular individ- ual's preferences over bundles of strictly positive amounts of each of two commodities. Suppose that this utility function is at least twice continuously differentiable. The indifference curve corresponding to utility level Û for this individual is a graphical representation of the level-set for this utility function that corresponds to utility-level Û.

Consider a consumer whose utility function is given by U(x, y) = x^1/3 y^2/3, where x and y represent quantities of consumption of two consumer goods. (a) If the consumer’s income is $100 and the prices of x and y are both $1, how should the consumer maximize her utility? What is her maximum level of utility? (b) If the price of y rose to $2, what would be the resulting income and substitution effects? Illustrate your answer.
