Ans: Statement is true
Explanation:
Two indifference curve can not intersect each other. It can be explained by the following diagram. In the figure, two indifference curve are cutting each other at point E. Now take point F on indifference curve IC2 and point G on indifference curve IC1. As we know an indifference curve represents those combination of two goods which gives equal satisfaction to the consumer. Now the combination E and F gives equal satisfaction because both the point lie on the same indifference curve IC2. Likewise the combination E and G gives equal satisfaction because both the point lie on the same indifference curve IC1. It is cleared from the diagram that combination F contains more of good Y as compared to combination G . As a result , the consumer will prefer combination F than G because combination F gives more satisfaction than combination G. So two indifference curve can not intersect each other.

Problem 9. Two indifference curves cannot intersect each other. Is this a TRUE or FALSE statement?...
Indifference Curves and the Budget Constraints: True, False, Uncertain or Not enough information: A given budget constraint has only one indifference curve that is tangent for a specific set of prices however, there may be numerous indifference curves that intersect the same budget constraint. Explain in terms of relative prices, opportunity cost and marginal rate of substitution.
Which statement is true or false:
a. The principle that "More is better" results in indifference curves reflecting greater preferences the further they are from the origin. b. If two goods are perfect substitutes, then the indifference curves for those two goods would be upward sloping and straight.

3. Indifference curves are convex (bowed in), because: a.) they are not allowed to intersect one another b.) the consumption of an additional unit of a good generates a smaller increase in total utility than the previous unit consumed c.) each indifference curve represents a constant level of utility d.) they are downward sloping
1. Give the main reason why two indifference curves can never intersect! 2. Why does a higher indifference curve (further right) represents a higher level of utility? 3. Describe a scenario of your own choice where the substitution effect of a price increase will have the same sign (positive or negative) than the income effect! 4. For a price decrease related to a Giffen goods, describe the signs of both the substitution effect as well as the income effect.
The following graph displays four demand curves (LL, MM, NN, and 00) that intersect at point A. Using the graph, complete the table that follows by indicating whether each statement is true or false. Statement True False Curve NN is more elastic between points A and D than curve MM is between points A and C. Between points A and E, curve 00 is perfectly elastic. Between points A and D, curve NN is inelastic

The variety of demand curves The following graph displays four demand curves (LL, MM, NN, and OO) that intersect at point A.Using the graph, complete the table that follows by indicating whether each statement is true or false. Statement Between points A and B, curve LL is unit elastic. Curve MM is more elastic between points A and C than curve NN is between points A and D. Between points A and D, curve NN is inelastic.
