a. A consumer is willing to trade 3 units of x for 1 unitof y when she has 6 units of x and 5 units of y. She isalso willing to trade in 6 units of x for 2 units of y whenshe has 12 units of x and 3 units of y. She is indifferentbetween bundle (6, 5) and bundle (12, 3). What is theutility function for goods x and y? Hint: What is theshape of the indifference curve?b. A consumer is willing to trade 4 units of x for 1 unitof y when she is consuming bundle (8, 1). She is alsowilling to trade in 1 unit of x for 2 units of y when sheis consuming bundle (4, 4). She is indifferent betweenthese two bundles. Assuming that the utility function isCobb–Douglas of the form U (x, y) = xα y β, where α andβ are positive constants, what is the utility function forthis consumer?c. Was there a redundancy of information in part (b)? Ifyes, how much is the minimum amount of informationrequired in that question to derive the utility function?
Randy lives on Cheetos and chocolates. The price of Cheetos is 3 dollar per bag and the price of chocolates is 6 dollars each. Randy allows himself to spend no more than 33 dollars a day on food. He also restricts his consump- tion to 6,500 calories per day. There are 1,500 calories in a bag of Cheetos and 500 calories in a chocolate.. If he spends his entire money budget each day and consumes no more calories than his calorie limit, up to how many bags of Cheetos can Randy consume per day?
