- The goal of the consumer is to maximize the total utility or satisfaction derived from their purchase choices, given the unique budget constraint. To calculate total utility of a given combination of T-shirts and movies, one would use the following approach: Group of answer choices For a given combination of T-shirts and movies, assign a number of utils to that combination. For a given combination of T-shirts and movies, survey a group of individuals to determine an average for utils to be assigned to the number of T-shirts and movies. Use utils as a measure of utility, assigning a specific number to T-shirts and movies, and then add those together. For a given combination of T-shirts and movies, use Google to identify the number of utils associated with the number of T-shirts and movies and then sum them.Nutritional economics.

His utility function is given as: U(V,M) = V^2MLast year, the average price of taking a vacation overseas was US$200 and the average price of an expensive meal is $50. However, due to supply problems in Onions, the average price of an expensive meal rose to $75. The average price of a vacation did not change. His income, which is $1500, did not change. Suppose that the Department of Welfare wants to know how much should be given to Eren to offset his change un utility due to the price increase of an expensive meal. Calculate the compensative variation (CV).
- What are some key points about the utility-maximization modelA hypothetical survey shows that most bike riders prefer Honda to Yamaha. What does this mean in the ordinal and cardinal utility analysis? If the survey is true, how do you reconcile the fact that we find more people driving Yamaha motor bikes than those driving Honda?I am unsure the direction the utility functions would go in , with this specific scenario
