Consider the figure to the right, where Joe initially maximizes utility at consumption-leisure combination R along budget constraint L¹. Suppose Joe's wage doubles. 1.) Use the line drawing tool to draw Joe's new budget constraint with the higher wage. Label this line 'L². 2.) Use the point drawing tool to identify the new utility-maximizing consumption- leisure bundle for Joe. Label this point 'T'.
