In the standard notation of our revealed preference analysis, suppose p^cC < p^CA < p^cB and p3cB < pBcC. Select one: Select one: a. These conditions are consistent with well-behaved preferences and imply only that situation A is revealed weakly preferred to situation C. b. These conditions are consistent with well-behaved preferences but tell us nothing about the preference ranking of the three situations. O c. These conditions are not mutually consistent with well- behaved preferences. O d. These conditions are consistent with well-behaved preferences and imply that situation C is revealed weakly preferred to situation B and situation A is revealed weakly preferred to situation C.
Zach's preferences are representable by the utility function u = 90.3927, where 9₁ and 92 denote his consumption of goods 1 and 2. (Answers to each of these questions are rounded, where required, to two decimal places.)
