Anna spends all her income on wine (good 1) and cheese (good 2). Her utility function is u(x1; x2) = x1x2. Her income is m = $200. The prices for the two goods are p1 = $20 and p2 = $10 respectively. Find Annaís optimal consumption bundle. Show the complete calculations, and illustrate your answer graphically (draw the indi§erence curve and the budget constraint). How would your answer change to part (a) if Annaís utility function were given by v(x1;...
