Suppose that with a budget of $110, Deborah spends $66 on sushi and $44 on bagels when sushi costs $2 per piece and bagels cost $2 per bagel. But then, after the price of bagels falls to $1 per bagel, she spends $50 on sushi and $50 on bagels. Instructions: Enter your answers as whole numbers. a. How many pieces of sushi and how many bagels did Deborah consume before the price change? Pieces of sushi = Bagels = b. At the new prices, how much money would it have cost Deborah to buy those same quantities (the ones that she consumed before the price change)? c. Given that it used to take Deborah's entire $110 to buy those quantities, how big is the income effect caused by the reduction in the price of bagels? $

1. An individual's budget Suppose Darnell has a weekly budget of $32 to spend on ranch dressing and spinach. Ranch dressing is priced at $4 per bottle, and spinach is priced at $2 per container. If Darnell spends his entire $32 on ranch dressing, he can buy 16 containers of spinach. 8 bottles of ranch dressing. If he spends his entire $32 on spinach, he can buy Use the blue line (circle symbol) to plot Darnell's budget constraint on the following graph. Next, use the orange point (square symbol) to shade the area that represents combinations of ranch dressing and spinach that are affordable for Darnell. Finally, place the black point (plus symbol) on the point on Darnell's budget constraint that corresponds to a scenario in which Darnell spends $16 on each good. Note: Dashed drop lines will automatically extend to both axes.

Scruffie the cat has $15 to spend each month on cat toys, which cost $3 each, and cat treats, which cost $1.50 each. Draw a budget line to show the combinations of each good that Scruffie can afford if she spends her entire budget. Now suppose that cat treats go on sale for $1 each. How does this change in price affect the budget line (describe and show on a graph)?

Suppose that with a budget of $100, Deborah spends $60 on sushi and $40 on bagels when sushi costs $2 per piece and bagels cost $2 per bagel. But then, after the price of bagels falls to $1 per bagel, she spends $50 on sushi and $50 on bagels. How many pieces of sushi and how many bagels did Deborah consume before the price change? At the new prices, how much money would it have cost Deborah to buy those same quantities (the ones that she consumed before the price change)? Given that it used to take Deborah’s entire $100 to buy those quantities, how big is the income effect caused by the reduction in the price of bagels?
