c. Discuss how the demand elasticity of a product changes? Give examples.
If good X plotted on the x-axis, and good Y plotted on the y-axis, an increase in the price of good X AND a decrease in
income will lead to what shift in the budget constraint?
The budget constraint will pivot inwards, and the shift right (outwards)
b.
The budget constraint will pivot outwards, and the shift left (inwards)
c. The budget constraint will pivot outwards, and the shift right (outwards)

Plot the initial budget line. The equation for the budget line is m = px * x + py * y. You can rearrange it to solve for y: y = (m - px * x) / py. With given values for m, px, and py, you can plot the line that represents all combinations of goods x and y that the consumer can afford. Plot the indifference curves. These curves represent the combinations of goods x and y that give the consumer the same level of utility. Due to the complexity of the given utility function U(x, y) = xy / (x + y), it may be challenging to plot the exact indifference curves. As an alternative, you can use a simpler utility function for demonstration purposes, such as U(x, y) = x^a * y^b (where a and b are positive constants), which results in easier-to-plot curves.
