Question 20

Essay

Suppose your tastes can be represented by the utility function u(x1,x2)=x12+x22u \left( x _ { 1 } , x _ { 2 } \right) = x _ { 1 } ^ { 2 } + x _ { 2 } ^ { 2 } .Your demand for x1x _ { 1 } is a. I2p1\frac { I } { 2 p _ { 1 } } .

d. Ip1\frac { I } { p _ { 1 } } if p1<p2p _ { 1 } < p _ { 2 } and 0 if p2<p1p _ { 2 } < p _ { 1 } .

b. p1Ip12+p22\frac { p _ { 1 } I } { p _ { 1 } ^ { 2 } + p _ { 2 } ^ { 2 } } .

e. None of the above

c. Ip1+p2\frac { I } { p _ { 1 } + p _ { 2 } } .
