Pam is rich and at this high income level, her demand for good X is independent of income and given by X*=41.9-5 px/py where px and py denote respectively the price of good X and the price of good Y. Assuming the price of good Y is equal to 1, find the total amount Pam would be willing to pay (i.e., Pam's willingness to pay) for 5 units of good X and enter it below.

Suppose that you, Jennifer, and Yusef constitute the market for CDs. Your demand for CDs is illustrated in the graph to the right (D₁), along with Jennifer's demand (D₂) and Yusef's demand (D3). Using the line drawing tool, construct the market demand curve for CDs. To do this, you will need to use three line segments labeled Dsegment 1 Dsegment 2, and Dsegment 3. Carefully follow the instructions above, and only draw the required objects.

Dan's utility function is U(x,y) =9.5 x2.4y4.9. Dan's income is 129.1 dollars, the price of good X is 4.8 and the price of good Y is 6.3, What is the slope of Dan's income expansion path, dy/dx, on a graph where good X appears on the horizontal axis and good Y appears on the vertical axis. Remember not to enter ratios below, such as 3/4, 2/9 etc. Instead enter the number in decimal form.
Pam is rich and at this high income level, her demand for good X is independent of income and given by X*=40.1- 5 px/py where px and py denote respectively the price of good X and the price of good Y. Assuming the price of good Y is equal to 1, find Pam's compensating variation if the price of good X rises from 2 to 4.3 dollars.
Nicanor's passion is good wine. If the prices of the other goods are constant, Nicanor's demand for a good Rioja is c = 0.04m – 2p, where m is his income, p is the price of Rioja and c is the demand for Rioja bottles. Assume that Nicanor has an income of $10,000 and that the price of a decent bottle of Rioja is $50. If the price of Rioja rises to $60, determine the income effect and the substitution effect on the demand for bottles of Nicanor wine.
Marvin has a Cobb-Douglas utility function, 0.5 0.5 U= 91 92 his income is Y = $900, and initially he faces prices of p₁ = $1 and p2 = $4. If p₁ increases from $1 to $2, what are his compensating variation (CV), change in consumer surplus (ACS), and equivalent variation (EV)? Marvin's change in consumer surplus (ACS) is $ minus sign if necessary.) Marvin's compensating variation (CV) is $. (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places and include a minus sign if necessary.) (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places and include a Marvin's equivalent variation (EV) is $. (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places and include a minus sign if necessary.)
Xander has a utility function u(x,y) = xy and an income of M. Assume that the price of x is $4 and the price y is $2. If Xander's income rises from M = 104 to M = 152, what the resulting increase in demand for good x? increases by 6 units increases by 9 units increases by 11 units increases by 14.5 units
John has $300 as income and he uses his income only for apples and bananas. If he uses his income only for apples, he can buy 10 pounds. If he uses his income only for bananas, he can buy 15 pounds. Which one is the correct formula for his budget constraint when X=pounds of apples, Y=pounds of bananas and the prices are per pound? a) More information is needed to answer the question. b) 15X + 10Y = 300 c) 10X + 15Y = 300 d) 20X + 30Y = 300 e) 30X + 20Y = 300
