Question
- Draw a graph of Tarik’s budget line (bread on the y axis).
Identify the intercept:
Bread intercepts: Set S=0 in the budget constraint equation:
So, the bread intercept is (0,40).
Sausage intercept: Set B=0 in the budget constraint equation:
So, the sausage intercept is (35, 0).
Plot the Points:
Plot the point (0, 40) on the y-axis.
Plot the point (35, 0) on the x-axis.
