Assume that Tom has an income of $100 per week, the price of a slice of pizza is $5, and the price of a taco is also $5. If Tom optimizes his purchases, he will choose to purchase which bundle of pizza slices and tacos? (Hint, consider which budget constraint Tom is on.) O A OB OC O O 111111000 14 IGN=
Explain why it is that as the consumer purchases more of a good, her marginal utility falls while her total utility rises.

Jerry spends his entire budget on bread and gasoline. His preferences are complete, transitive, monotonic, and convex. For Jerry, bread is an inferior good that follows the law of demand. Moreover, his cross-price elasticity of demand for gasoline with respect to the price of bread is negative. Suppose the price of bread increases, all else constant. a. Create a chart to show the total, income, and substitution effects on bread and gasoline of the increase in the price of bread. b. Use budget lines and indifference curves to graphically illustrate the three effects. Be sure to label each effect on your graph (or through the chart from part a) and plot bread on the x-axis and gasoline on the y-axis
Jamani earns a weekly income of $6000. Suppose he wishes to spend this income on two goods, games and DVDs only. A game costs $200 while a DVDcosts $600. Draw Jamani’s budget line. Putting games on the Y axis. ii. Suppose his income increases to $9000 per week, illustrate what happens to her budget line.iii. Suppose the price of games increase to $600, while his income and the price of DVDs is unchanged from part (i).
There are only two brands of tennis balls Tom purchases: "Wilson" and "Penn." The more he purchases of a ball, the lower the marginal utility of that ball. He spends all of his income and his marginal utility of a "Wilson" is 6 and his marginal utility of an "Penn" is 12. The price of a "Wilson" ball is $1 and the price of an "Penn" is $2. Which of the statements is true based on the above information? Question 19 options: a) Tom could increase his satisfaction by trading "Wilson" for "Penn." b) In equilibrium, Tom must give up three "Penn" balls for two "Wilson" balls. c) Tom can increase his satisfaction by doing nothing d) Tom would be willing to give up two "Penn" balls for one "Wilson" ball.
Jeremy consumes only two goods, X and Y, and faces the following utility function: U = XY The marginal utity for X is MUx -Y and the marginal utility for Y is MUy = X. His initial budget is $800, and the prices of X and Y are $12.5 and $2. %3D "Most answers should be round numbers. Answer everything to 1 decimal place, if need be What are the amounts of X and Y that will maximize Joremy's utility? X= Number Y= Number How many X and Y will Jeremy choose if the price of X suddenly fell to S8? X- Number Y. Number How many X and Y are in the substitution bundle? X- Number Y.

Ques 1. Sally consumes two goods, X and Y. Her utility function is given by the expression U=3XY2. The marginal utility of X and marginal utility of Y are given by the following equations: MUX=3Y2 and MUY=6XY The current market price for X is $10, while the market price for Y is $5. Sally's current income is $500. A) Draw out Sally’s budget line. (show the points where it meets the vertical and horizontal axes) B) Determine the X,Y combination which maximizes Sally's utility, given her budget constraint. (Partial units for the quantities are possible.) [Hint: One of the ways to do this is to use the equal marginal principle to find the optimal ratio of X to Y and then use that in the budget equation]. C) How much is Sally’s utility? Now the price of X increases to $15. What is the ratio in which she will consume X and Y ?
