The first graph presents the utility maximizing combinations of bread and brie that Hayden chooses when the price of bread is $1.00 per loaf and the price of brie is either $4.00 or $6.00 per wheel. The second graph shows Hayden's demand curve for brie, based on those utility maximizing points. What are the specific prices and quantities of brie associated with points A and B on Hayden's demand curve?

Rick consumes 2 goods, Chicken McNuggets (M) with Szechuan sauce (S). His utility function is U(M, S) = M2/3 S1/3 and his income is m. The price of Chicken McNuggets is p, and the price of Szechuan sauce is 1. On the same graph, show the income and substitution effects of the increase in p from 1 to 2 on Rick’s consumption of Chicken McNuggets. Are Chicken McNuggets a normal or inferior good for Rick? Explain your answer.
Pam has a monthly budget of £120 to be spent on T-shirts and trainers. She could afford to buy two T-shirts and two pairs of trainers. She could also buy eight T-shirts. In each case, she would be spending her entire monthly allowance. Calculate the price of a T-shirt and the price of a pair of trainers. Write down Pam’s budget equation and draw the corresponding budget line. Mark the two consumption bundles mentioned above. In your graph, clearly label the axes, the budget line, and calculate the coordinates of the points of intersection of the budget line with each axis. Interpret each of those points. Discuss how Pam’s budget set would change if the price of a T-shirt doubles. Show the relevant changes graphically. How should Pam’s income change so that she could still afford to buy two T-shirts and two pairs of trainers? Discuss how Pam’s budget constraint would change if the government imposed a tax of £3 per each pair of trainers.

Joyce drinks both coffee (x) and tea (y). Her preferences over these two goods can be represented by the utility function U(x,y) =x + 3y^1/2 where x represents the number of pounds of coffee and y represents the number of cups of tea. a) Given her preferences, find her demand functions for coffee (x) and tea (y). b) Suppose that the price of a pound of coffee is $4 and that she has $56 to spend on coffee and tea. Write her demand curve for tea. Illustrate her demand curve. c) Suppose that the price of a cup of tea is $1 (the price of coffee and income remain $4 and $56, resp.). Use your demand functions to find her best bundle. In an indifference curve diagram illustrate her best bundle at these prices. For the remainder of the question, assume that her income rises to $60 and that the prices of coffee and tea are unchanged at = $4 and =1.
Rick consumes 2 goods, Chicken McNuggets (M) with Szechuan sauce (S). His utility function is U(M, S) = M2/3 S1/3 and his income is m. The price of Chicken McNuggets is p, and the price of Szechuan sauce is 1. Suppose m=100 and p=2. How much of each good does Rick consume? On the same graph from part (e), show Rick’s budget constraint and indifference curve passing through his new chosen consumption bundle.

Lisa consumes only two goods, pizzas and burritos. In equilibrium, her marginal utility per slice of pizza is 10 and her marginal utility per burrito is 8. Instructions: Enter your answer rounded to two decimal places. If a slice of pizza costs $3, then the price of a burrito must be $
Suppose Lorenzo has a weekly budget of $48 to spend on ranch dressing and peanut butter. Ranch dressing is priced at $4 per bottle, and peanut butter is priced at $6 per jar. If Lorenzo spends his entire $48 on ranch dressing, he can buy jars of peanut butter. buy Use the blue line (circle symbol) to plot Lorenzo's budget constraint on the following graph. Next, use the orange point (square symbol) to shade the area that represents combinations of ranch dressing and peanut butter that are affordable for Lorenzo. Finally, place the black point (plus symbol) on the point on Lorenzo's budget constraint that corresponds to a scenario in which Lorenzo spends $24 on each good.
