Economics Bo Jackson is the only player to make both the Pro Bowl and the MLB All-Star game. Leading a dual career in both professional sports was taxing though. Bo ended up playing 9 years in the MLB and four years in the NFL, relatively short careers considering he's one of the greatest athletes of all time. How would comparative advantage explain why Bo Jackson spent more years playing baseball than football? (Incidentally, the real history of why Bo only played four years of football is more complicated. Look him up if you're interested.)

The following five individuals have different utility functions over food (good x) and clothing (good y): 1) u₁(x, y) = 3x²y 2) u₂(x, y) = 2√x + y 3) Uz(x, y) = x0.6y0.4 4) u₁(x, y) = x² + y² 1 5) us(x, y) = x + 3y For each of these people: a) Compute their marginal utilities of good x, MUx = Ju(x,y) MU, = ду du(x,y) ax b) Check whether the property of "more is better" is satisfied for both goods? Explain. [Hint: Check whether marginal utilities are positive assuming positive amounts of good x and good y] ƏMUX əx and marginal utility of good y, c) Does the marginal utility of good x diminish, remain constant, or increase as each of the individuals buys more x? Explain. [Hint: There are 2 ways to do it: 1) visually check what happens to the expression of MUx when x increases (does it decrease, keep constant or decrease?); or 2) take the partial derivative of this marginal utility with respect to x, that is ƏMUx .aMUX ƏMUX If 0, the marginal utility of x is increasing in x] d) Does the…
