4 Assume that a person's utility over two goods is given by U(g1; g2) = g1 + ln g2. The price of good g1 is equal to p1 and the price of good g2 is p2. The total income of the individual is given by I. The marginal rate of substitution between g1 and g2 is given by 1/(1/g2). Then, the expressions for this person's (1) budget constraint, (2) budget line's slope (assume that, graphically, g1 is on the horizontal axis and g2 on the vertical axis), and (3) the person's demand function for g2 (that is, g2 as a function of price ratio) are respectively:
