When the food first arrives, you ask your brother if you can have a few fries. He looks at you like you're crazy, and says, "No!" Then a few minutes later, after you've both started eating, you ask again, and your brother reluctantly says, "Sure. Go ahead." An economist's explanation for your brother's change of heart is most likely to be that your brother's marginal utility from eating additional french fries declines as he eats more of them, so he's more likely to share with you after he's eaten a few. your brother's total utility increases as he eats more french fries, so he's more likely to share with you after he's eaten a few. your brother's marginal utility from eating additional french fries increases as he eats more of them, so he's more likely to share with you after he's eaten a few. your brother's total utility declines as he eats more french fries, so…arrow_forwardHow does Homo Economicus influence economic models?

- Which of the following statements are correct? In economics, a model is a simplified representation (diagrammatical or physical) that helps us to understand what is going on by focusing attention on what is important. See the steps of how to build a model (Unit 2.2). Ceteris paribus is an assumption used in economic models in which the important variables that you are focusing on are kept constant. An equilibriumis a self-perpetuating situation that does not change, even when a force for change is introduced from the outside that alt An equilibriumis a self-perpetuating situation that does not c basic data describing the situation. You selected this answer. An equilibrium is a self-perpetuating situation that does not change unlessa force for change is introduced from the outside that alters the basic data describing the situation.

Political economy explains the functioning of government. Behavioral economics ties psychology into human behavior. Economists assume that individuals make rational decisions. However real people are more complex. Based on what you have learned in your assigned reading, answer the following questions in your initial post: What are the human behaviors economists should observe when creating economic models? Example: people tend to find solutions that are good enough, but not the best solutions. In your responses, comment on at least two of your peers' posts and share example of how non-rational human behavior can change an economic outcome.arrow_forwardWhat are the limitations of Samuelson general equilibrium modelarrow_forward
