![1. An individual's budget
Suppose Cho has a monthly budget of $80 to spend on coffee and cereal. Coffee is priced at $4 per cup, and cereal is priced at $2 per box.
If Cho spends her entire $80 on coffee, she can buy
CEREAL (Boxes)
Use the blue line (circle symbol) to plot Cho's budget constraint on the following graph. Next, use the orange point (square symbol) to shade the area
that represents combinations of coffee and cereal that are affordable for Cho. Finally, place the black point (plus symbol) on the point on Cho's budget
constraint that corresponds to a scenario in which Cho spends $40 on each good.
