1. Doreen is looking for a flat to rent in Brighton. a. In choosing a flat, she cares about two characteristics: the number of bedrooms (x), and the number of bathrooms (y). Her utility function is U(x,y) = min(x, 2y). She has £1000 to spent on rent per month. The rental price per bedroom in Brighton is £400, and the price per bathroom is £200. (For example, a flat with three bedrooms and two bathrooms would rent for £1600 per month.) How many bedrooms and bathrooms does Doreen choose to rent optimally? b. Doreen now needs to furnish her flat. She has £500 to spend. However, she would also like to buy some clothes for her new job. The cost of furniture f is £50 per unit and the cost of clothing c is £20 per unit. Her utility function over furniture and clothing is U(f.c) = f0.3c0.7. How much does she spend in total on furniture, and on clothing? c. The local furniture shop runs a flash sale of 50% off, on all prices. How much does Doreen now spend on furniture, and on clothing?…

ECON Questions 5, 6, 7, and 8 How to solve and answer these economics questions showed in the screenshot?
1..Calculate the optimal quantity of each of two goods (x and y) and the consumers’ total utility given Px=1, Py=2, I=80, and U(x,y) = x1/2y. How would you represent this graphically? What is value of the utility received by consumer at optimal consumption? Explain all your steps. N.B. You can attach your explanations
Refer to the graph below Quantity of Y 160 0 Multiple Choice The consumer's income is $1,000 Why doesn't the consumer choose the combination at point B O Quantity of X 200 O The marginal utility of Y exceeds the marginal uplity of X O The consumer is willing to give up more X for an additional unit of Y than must be given up given the relative prices of X and Y. The marginal utility per dollar spent on X exceeds the marginal utility per dollar spent on Y The consumer is willing to give up more Y for an additional unt of X than must be given up given the relative prices of X and Y
3. A consumer's indirect utility function is given by V (p, y) = f(p)y. (a) What is the form of this consumer's expenditure function? (b) What kind of preferences does this consumer have?
Question 3. Suppose that Janice only cares about tea (T) and coffee (C). Her utility function is U = 2T + 4C. The price of T is $1.50, and the price of C is $2.50. Janice has a budget of $15 for tea or coffee during the week. (a) Write down the consumers maximization problem. (b) What are the consumption quantities of T and C that will maximize Janice's utility?
4. Tim wants to maximise his utility given his utility function of U(A, B) = A²B4. He faces the following prices and income: PA = 25; PB = 20; M = 250. However, a change in the price of good A to PA = 22 will change his optimal bundle. If he is only interested in being able to consume his original bundle of goods, how much income would he need after the price change? (a) Tim would require £54 less income (b) Tim would require £18.33 more income (c) Tim would require £10 less income (d) Tim would require £16.66 more income (e) Tim would require £16.66 less income
