a. Determine the demand functions of x and y in the case of a Cobb-Douglas type utility function, in the following cases: α=0.40;β=0.60 Graph the demand functions of the two goods (price as a function of quantity) assuming the individual's income is $500 - Determine what is the quantity demanded of x and y, if the price of good x is USD 1, the price of good y is USD 4, and income is USD 500 - Now, explain what happens to the quantity demanded if the prices of the goods are doubles holding income constant.
Suppose we have a market with 200 individuals with preferences over two goods, x and y. 1. Consider that all 200 individuals have the utility function U = x²/3y¹/3 and that each individual has the same income and is subject to the same prices. Calculate the market demand for x as a function of income and prices. 2. Find the own price elasticity of demand for good x. Is the elasticity constant or is it changing at different values of P? 3. Suppose now that we know m = 135, P = 3, 4. What is the market demand for x? This should be a number. and Py 4.

A consumer’s preferences over two goods x and y are given bythe utility function U(x, y) = xαyβ with α, β > 0. The prices of the goods are px = 2 and py = 4.The consumer has an income of I > 0.(a) For what values of α and β are these utility functions strictly monotone?(b) For what values of α and β will the consumer demand (i.e., Walrasian demand) be more x than y?(c) For what values of α and β are these goods gross substitutes? For what values of α and β are these goods gross complements? Provide a justification for your answer.
