Daniela has $100 to buy supplies for her printer. The two items that she needs are inkcartridges and printer paper. Paper costs $10 for 1000 sheets, and ink cartridges cost $5 and must bereplaced aŌer 2000 sheets of paper.a. Sketch Daniela's budget line.b. What will her indifference curves look like?c. What will she buy?
gd A and good b: perfect compliment
i buy $80 on good a and b monthly
the pricing of the 2 gds are Price a = price b = $10
How will my indifference curve look like in a graph? And why does it look like it? And how do I add a budget line to it?
how do I add the optimal bundle if I need to find the amount of good a and b I choose to buy?
