Fill in the Blanks Type your answers in all of the blanks and submit Suppose you are a student at Blunter College in Fall 2021. You must decide how many courses to attend. Here is the relevant information about costs and benefits: The first course would give you a benefit worth 3000, the second course would give you a benefit worth 2300, the third course would give you a benefit worth 1500, and the fourth course would give you a benefit worth 500. For each course that you take, you give up 1000 in foregone income (the money you could have earned during the time spend on a course). Each course is priced at 1500. Suppose you have already paid fully for four courses, and this payment is non-refundable. Use marginal analysis to determine how many courses (0, 1, 2, 3, or 4) you actually decide to attend:
