What is the largest number of burritos that the studentcould afford to purchase in one month?2. What is the largest number of sodas the student couldafford to purchase in one month?3. Draw the student's budget constraint. Put burritos on thex-axis and sodas on the y-axis.Graded Assignment due Monday4. Which combinations of burritos and sodas are unaffordable--those tothe left of the line in the graph or those above the line in the graph? Why?5.

Pls help with below homework. Assume that the consumers A and B want to maximize utility, that they consume the same goods price ration. What decision rule would they employ, and how would this relate to the Welfare Frontier? (Assume that the goods are X and Y).
a. A young connoisseur has $600 to spend to build a smallwine cellar. She enjoys two vintages in particular: a 2001French Bordeaux (wF) at $40 per bottle and a less expensive 2005 California varietal wine (wC) priced at $8. Ifher utility is U (wF, wC))=wF2/3 w C1/3 ,then how much of each wine should she purchase?b. When she arrived at the wine store, this young oenologistdiscovered that the price of the French Bordeaux hadfallen to $20 a bottle because of a decrease in the valueof the euro. If the price of the California wine remainsstable at $8 per bottle, how much of each wine shouldour friend purchase to maximize utility under thesealtered conditions?c. Explain why this wine fancier is better off in part (b)than in part (a). How would you put a monetary value onthis utility increase?
Each day Paul, who is in third grade, eats lunch at school. He likes only Twinkies (t) and soda (s), andthese provide him a utility ofutility = U (t s) =square root (ts).a. If Twinkies cost $0.10 each and soda costs $0.25 per cup, how should Paul spend the $1 hismother gives him in order to maximize his utility?b. If the school tries to discourage Twinkie consumption by raising the price to $0.40, by howmuch will Paul’s mother have to increase his lunch allowance to provide him with the same levelof utility he received in part (a)?

ASAP While we re applying decision rule lets say we come to the point that the Marginal utility per dollar for good A is 4U and for good B is 4U and the price of A is 4 dollar and B is 5 dollar and the our remaining budget is 4 dollar (let say we have 2 good ) then for that situation if we buy good A our total utility remain same ?PLEASE ANSWER JUST MY SCENİRO DONT GİVE GENERAL DEFİNİTİON

4. URGENT Given that maximize utility of two goods, x and y, is where MUx/Px=MUy/Py MUx/MUy=Px/Py , where MU is marginal utility, and P is price. a. Explain what happens to the marginal utility of x, when more of x is consumed. b. Explain what a rational person should do when MUx/Px>MUy/Py , and how each MU, and MU/P changes or not. c. Graph and explain the intercepts and the slope of the budget line (constraint) when the budget is 100 and the price of x is 5 and the price of y is 4. d. Graph and explain an indifference curve that is tangent to a budget line. This is a general graph with no numbers.

Intialy mr. John is at equilibrium such that the last dollar spent on each of several products gives hi identical marginal utility i.e MUorange/porange=MUApple/pApple=...=MUn/pn where Mu orange =aditional utility derived from consuming one more unit of Apple ,pApple=price of a unit of Apple etc Q.how will Mr.Jhon react if the price of orange and other goods remain constant?and how can the equilibrium be restored?
