Ayana is pitching an idea for a startup company that makes and sells solar-powered phonechargers (C). Her market research has found that consumer demand for this product can beexpressed as a function of the price of the charger itself (PC), the price of phones (PF), andthe consmer’s income (I). Consumer demand can be described by the function C(PC, PF, I) =(i−10PC)/ (PF) Suppose her chargers come in all different capacities to meet any quantity demanded, so youdon’t need to worry about restricting C to whole numbers for this problem. (a) Does this product satisfy the law of demand?Explain.

Kevin has a $100 monthly exercise budget, which he spends at Tarheel Gym on yoga classes (Y) and spin classes (S). The price of yoga class is $10, and the price of a spin class is $5. Draw his budget constraint for each of the following scenarios. Use a separate graph for each part and label all axes, intercepts, and the coordinates of any kink points. Treat each case separately and graph yoga classes on the x-axis and spin classes on the y-axis. a. The price of a yoga class drops to $8 after 5 classes, and again to $5 after 10 classes. b. After every 4 yoga classes you buy, you get the next one for half off. c. After purchasing 5 yoga classes, you become a “Tarheel Yogi. " Becoming a Tarheel Yogi costs $20, but it also reduces the price of each subsequent yoga class to $5. d. For every 5 yoga classes you buy, you get $5 in gym credit that can be used on any class at Tarheel Gym.

14.3 (0) Quasimodo consumes earplugs and other things. His utility function for earplugs x and money to spend on other goods y is given by u(x, y) = 100x 2:² 2 +y. (a) What kind of utility function does Quasimodo have? (b) What is his inverse demand curve for earplugs?. (c) If the price of earplugs is $50, how many earplugs will he consume? (d) If the price of earplugs is $80, how many earplugs will he consume? (e) Suppose that Quasimodo has $4,000 in total to spend a month. What is his total utility for earplugs and money to spend on other things if the price of earplugs is $50?
The figure below illustrates 3 indifference curves and two budget lines for a student whose budget for online gaming is $10/week. The red line illustrates this student's original budget line. After thanksgiving prices change, the blue (dash-dot) line illustrates the student's new (post-price change) budget line. a) What were the original hourly prices of FortDay and PokemonStop? What are the new prices? b) What is the students optimal bundle at the original prices? How about at the new prices?
