Aconsumer currently spends a given budget on two goods, x and y, in such quantities that the marginal utility of x is 10 and the marginal utility of y is 8. the unit priceof x is $5 and the unit price of y is $2. the utility-maximizing rule suggests that this consumer should do what ?

In that case, consumer need to buy more units of Y and less units of X.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Marginal utility of X = 10

Marginal utility of Y = 8

Unit price of X = $5

Unit price of Y = $2

So, we know that

and

Since

In that case, consumer need to buy more units of Y and less units of X.

So, MU of y becomes lower and MU of x becomes higher until they becomes equal to each other to attain consumer's equilibrium.

the correct answer to your question is a. 4^4

good luck my friend!

hope this !

maybe if i you could me by giving me brainliest?

! < 3

have a splendid day < 3 : )

the answer is (-8,-5)

step-by-step explanation:

the endpoint to midpoint is half the length. the length is (-2,-1) so when you are at the midpoint just add it to it to find your answer -6+(-2)= -8 and -4+(-1)=-5 so (-8,-5)
