Title Suppose that Lynn enjoys coconut oil in her coffee. She has very particular preferences, and she mus Description Suppose that Lynn enjoys coconut oil in her coffee. She has very particular preferences, and she must have exactly two spoonfuls of coconut oil for each cup of coffee. Let C be the number of cups of coffee, and O be the number of spoonfuls of coconut oil. Also, let PC be the price of a cup of coffee. Suppose Lynn has $12 to spend on coffee and coconut oil. Also, the price of coconut oil is $.50 per spoonful.a) Graph Lynnâs Price Consumption Curve for prices, PC = $1, PC = $2, and PC = $3. Please put the number of cups of coffee on the horizontal axis, and the number of spoonfuls of coconut oil on the vertical axis. Be sure to label your graph carefully and accurately.b) Graph Lynnâs demand curve for coffee. You may assume that both coconut oil and coffee are continuous variables so she can consume any amount of coffee and coconut oil that she could afford.…

I NEED HELP WITH PART B! (a) A consumer has utility u(x,y,z) = ln(x) + 2ln(y) + 3ln(z) over the three goods, x,y and z and pz=1. Optimally she consumes 30 units of z. What is her income? How much money does she spend on x? (HINT: MUx = 1/x, MUy= 2/y, MUz = 3/z and remeber the "equivalent bang for the buck" condition). (b) Forget about (a). Suppose you have t= 29 hours in total to spend on 3 projects X,Y and Z to make some money. If you spend x hours on project X, you make 2 sqrt(x) dollars; If you spend y hours on project Y, you make 3 sqrt(y) dollars; If you spend z hours on project Z, you make 4sqrt(z) dollars; Writing down your "utility function" u(x,y,z) and the constraint, solve the utility maximization problem; what is the optimal amount of time to spend on x? on y? on z?
Let MUA = z = 10 − x and MUB = z = 21 − 2y, where z is marginal utility per dollar measured in utils, x is the amount spent on product A, and y is the amount spent on product B. Assume that the consumer has $10 to spend on A and B—that is, x + y = 10. How is the $10 best allocated between A and B? How much utility will the marginal dollar yield?

Thevice president for business states that enrolment has tended to follow apattern described by E = 18,000 – 0.5P, where E denotes total enrolment andP is yearly tuition.a) If the school sets tuition at €20,000, how many students can it expect to enrol?b) If the school wants to maximize total tuition revenue, what tuition should itcharge?c) As the vice president for business, what tuition would you recommend? Explainbriefly.d) Due to a strong post-COVID-19 recovery, the income conditions in the regionimprove substantially. Explain in one sentence how this could affect the college’senrolment pattern and the enrolment level maximizing its tuition revenue.
