Hella the Greek's preferences can be described by the utility function U(x, y) = (x^1/2 + 3^1//2)^2. (a) What is the indifference curve for a utility of 49? (b) By how much does utility increase when Hella increases consumption of good y by one (small) unit, when initially U = 49 and x = 1? (c) Holding utility constant at 49, if initially x = 1, how many additional (small) units of y does Hella have to consume if her consumption of x drops by 6 (small) units?

(a) Suppose we have preferences U(X, Y) = min [X, 3Y]. Graph/sketch the indifference curve through the bundle (X = 30, Y = 30). What is the utility of (30, 30) and explain why the indifference curves look the way they do. (b) What does the Marginal Rate of Substitution tell us about preferences? < (c) Why is the Marginal Rate of Substitution not applicable in this example? < (d) What do we mean by a composite good? What does this composite good look like with these preferences? Show and explain.< (e) State the consumer's maximization problem and express this in words.< (f) Now let Px = 10, Px= 20 and income M = 2000. Find optimal X*, Y*, and the resulting Utility (U*). Show your work. < (g) Now let Py = 15. How does optimal consumption (X*.Y*) and utility (U*) change relative to (e)? Explain in simple terms and show in a diagram.<

I need help checkin my own answers to this homework question as im not sure of my own answers. The info for the question is attached  the question: How much X and Y should the consumer purchase in order to maximize her utility? i got x =4.5 and y =18. is that correct?

solve g, h please Thank you

A consumer has preferences over bundles of two goods with indifference curves defined by X2 = for k>0. (a) Find a utility function representing these preferences assuming that the consumer's pref- erences are monotone. (b) Give an example of a utility function representing non-monotone preferences with the same indifference curves. (c) Show that indifference curves of the form x2 = x + k for k € R cannot arise from monotone preferences.

Suppose your income is 200, the price of good x is 2, and the price of good y is 3. You know that your utility function is U= 2(xy)^3.  (A) What amounts of x and y do you choose? (B) Can you generalize your choices to demand curves for x and y for any prices and income?

solutions. Question 1 Calculating MRS for CD Utility Functions (a) If a consumer has a CD utility function 0.4 0.6 U(91,92) = 994926, calculate MRS1,2. (b) If a consumer has a CD utility function Ima kdown1 calculate MRS1,2. (c) If a consumer has an utility function noltan asd Tor sympy ,1-α U(91,92) = 91 92 llib et (.) orde (hing aid tol bholup U(91,92) = a ln(91) + (1 - a) ln(92), diw sonuanos of calculate MRS1,2. Is it the same as the result in the previous part? (Note: Recall that we discussed the concept of ordinal utility in class, which means only the order of utility matters, not its magnitude. In function is a monotone transformation on the CD utility function. Notice that In (qq) = a ln(9₁) + (1 - a) ln(92). This example verifies that a monotone transformation does not change *(S) sidshav the consumer's indifference curves.) wobei/ (d)
