From the information given in the preceding question (in which Ming views X and Y as perfect complements), we know that when the price of Y increases, Ming's demand curve for X shifts in. O when the price of Y increases, Ming's demand curve for X shifts out. when the price of X increases, Ming's demand curve for x shifts out. O Ming's demand curve for X is a horizontal line. O Ming's demand curve for X is a vertical line.

Angela and Vanessa are two friend who always eat ice cream together. The regular price of ice cream is $1 per spoon. Angela always orders 3 spoons and Vanessa orders 5 spoons. Every Tuesday, the ice cream is 50% off. Angela orders 6 spoons and Vanessa order 7 spoons on Tuesday. Which of the following statement is incorrect? O The total quantity of ice cream demanded by Angela and Vanessa increased by 5 on every Tuesday. O Angela's individual demand curve has a downward sloping. O The promotion on every Tuesday shift out the demand curve. O Vanessa's individual demand curve isn't same as Angela's.
Arya only consumes two goods: X and Y. When the price of X changes, the income effect and the substitution effect for X move in opposite directions. In addition, the income effect for X dominates the substitution effect. X must be: a) a Giffen good for Arya. b) an inferior good for Arya. c) a normal good for Arya. O d) perfect substitutes for Arya. O e) Both a and b are true.
Suppose the price of Xylophones is $3 and the price of Yoyos is $7. Robin's marginal utility of Xylophones is 15 and the marginal utility of Yoyos is 21. In order to maximize utility, Robin should O Buy fewer Xylophones and fewer Yoyos O Buy fewer Xylophones and more Yoyos Buy fewer Yoyos and more Xylophones Continue to buy the same number of Xylophones and Yoyos.
If two goods are substitutes, then O an increase in the price of one causes the demand for the other to fall. O there is an inverse relationship between changes in the price of one good and changes in the demand for the other. O if the price of one good falls, the demand for the other good falls also. O changes in the quantity demanded of one good will not affect the demand for the other.
Suppose that Paolo and Sharon are the only consumers of ice cream cones in a particular market. The following table shows their monthly demand schedules: Price Paolo’s Quantity Demanded Sharon’s Quantity Demanded (Dollars per cone) (Cones) (Cones) 1 8 16 2 5 12 3 3 8 4 1 6 5 0 4 On the following graph, plot Paolo’s demand for ice cream cones using the green points (triangle symbol). Next, plot Sharon’s demand for ice cream cones using the purple points (diamond symbol). Finally, plot the market demand for ice cream cones using the blue points (circle symbol). Note: Line segments will automatically connect the points. Remember to plot from left to right.

Suppose Coke and Pepsi are perfect substitutes for me, and right and left shoes are perfect complements. A. Suppose my income allocated to Coke/Pepsi consumption is $100 per month, and my income allocated to right/left shoe consumption is similarly $100 per month. a. Suppose Coke currently costs $0.50 per can and Pepsi costs $0.75 per can. Then the price of Coke goes up to $1 per can. Illustrate my original and my new optimal bundle with "Coke" on the horizontal and "Pepsi" on the vertical axis. b. Suppose right and left shoes are sold separately. If right and left shoes are originally both priced at $1, illustrate (on a graph with "right shoes" on the horizontal and "left shoes" on the vertical) my original and my new optimal bundle when the price of left shoes increases to $2. c. True or False: Perfect complements represent a unique special case of homothetic tastes in the following sense: Whether income goes up or whether the price of one of the goods falls, the optimal bundle…
