Suppose Jack's utility function U(m, e) = min(m, e). Graph Jack's indifference curves when U = 4 and U = 8. B. Leslie buys 2 goods: z and y. His utility function is U(z,y) = 5x+3y. 1. Plot this consumer's indifference curves when U = 15 and U = 20. What is the shape of Leslie's indifference curves? 3. For Leslie, how are these two goods related? C. Leslie's friend Tim has a different utility function for the same goods U(x, y) = √zy. 1. Plot this consumer's indifference curves when U = 15 and Ū = 20. 2. What is the shape of Tim's indifference curves? D. A consumer's utility function for goods 2 and y is U(z,y) = x+2y. 2. 1.

I like drinking Smirnoff and Stoli Vodka, but I really only careabout the total amount of alcohol I get out of it. They areperfect substitutes. Smirnoff is sold in liter bottles that are100 proof (that’s 50% alcohol). Stoli is sold in liter bottlesthat are 80 proof (40% alcohol). What is my utility functionfor bundles of these two vodkas? What do my indifferencecurves look like?
