The indifference curve below represents various combinations of ice cream and pizza that provide you with 1,000 utils of satisfaction. If you are currently consuming at bundle D and change to consume bundle E, you are giving up ____   pizzas to gain ____  more ice creams. The marginal rate of substitution will be ___ . (Give all answers to two decimals.)   If you are currently consuming at bundle H and change to consume bundle I, you are giving up _____   pizzas to gain _____ more ice creams. The marginal rate of substitution will be _____. (Give all answers to two decimals.)

1) Max chooses to purchase movie tickets and restaurant meals every week with his $100. If the price of a movie ticket is $20 and the price of a restaurant meal is $25, then the slope of his budget constraint will be, a) 1/5 b) -1/5 c) 4/5 d) -4/5   2) Marginal rate of substitution(MRS) is the rate at which consumer is willing to trade one good for another. It must be true that: a) MRS is the slope of an indifference curve in reference to a particular bundle of goods. b) MRS is not the same along an indifference curve that is of usual shape. c) MRS is same along an indifference curve that is of usual shape. d) Both a) and b).

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. Note: Dashed drop lines will automatically extend to both axes. PEANUT BUTTER (Jars) 24 22 20 18 2 0 + 0 2 4 12 14 16 18 20 22 bottles of ranch dressing.

Define the Marginal Rate of Substitution between two goods (X and Y).If a consumer’s preferences are given by U(X,Y) = X1/4Y 3/4, compute the consumer’s marginalrate of substitution as a function of X and Y. Calculate the MRS if the consumer has chosen toconsumer 12 units of X and 30 units of Y.
