10. Deriving demand from an indiference map
Frances recently moved to San Diego, where they developed a taste for drinking Americanos and eating danishes. Assume throughout this problem
that the price of an Americano is held constant at $3.
On the following graph, the purple curves (I and I₂) describe two of Frances's indifference curves. The lines BC, and BC, represent bro budget
constraints. Points X and Y show Frances's optimal consumption bundles subject to the budget constraints.

The Utility theory used in economics holds the belief that an item or service's utility is a measure of the satisfaction that the consumer will derive from the consumption of that particular good or service. Explain in a graph and short paragraph what it wold look like in today's Beef industry if the price of beef goes up Marginal Utility for beef consumption goes down..

Praxilla gets 30 units of marginal utility from her first poem 27 units of marginal utility from her second poem 24 units of marginal utility from her third poem, and so on, with marginal utility declining by three units for each additional poem. Praxilla gets six units of marginal utility for each of her next three cucumbers consumed, five units of marginal utility for each of her next three cucumbers consumed, four units of marginal utility for each of the following three cucumbers consumed, and so on, with marginal utility declining by one for every three cucumber consumed. A poem costs three bronze coins hut a cucumber costs only one bronze coin. Praxilla has 18 bronze coins. Sketch Praxillas budget set between poems and cucumbers, placing poems on the vertical axis and cucumbers on the horizontal axis. Start off with the choice of zero poems and 18 cucumbers, and calculate the changes in marginal utility of moving along the budget line to the next choice of one poem and 15 cucumbers. Using this step-by-step process based on marginal utility, create a table and identify Praxillas utility—maximizing choice. Compare the marginal utility of the two goods and the relative prices at the optimal choice to see if the expected relationship holds. Hint: Label the table columns: 1) Choice, 2} Marginal Gain from More Poems, 3) Marginal Loss from Fewer Cucumbers, 4) Overall Gain or Loss, 5) Is the previous choice Optimal?
