(b) There are three people and two goods in an economy. The utility functions and initial bundles are given below: U₁ = X11X12 W₁ = (0,8) U₂ = 2x21 + x22 W₂=(2, 2) U3 = X31X32 + x32 W3 = (8,0) Suppose it is suggested that the three traders move to the allocation x given by: x₁ = (1,2), x₂ = (8,4), x3 = (1,4). iii) Show that x is not in the core.
