Will Smith consumes chocolate and milk. Let y denote chocolate and x denote milk. Chocolate has an unusual market where there is only one supplier, and the more chocolate you buy from the supplier, the higher the price she charges per unit. In fact, y units of chocolate will cost Will y² dollars. Milk is sold in the usual way at a price of 2 dollars per unit. Will’s income is 20 dollars and his utility function is U = x + 2y. Draw Will’s budget set and shade it in. Sketch some of his indifference curves and label the point that he chooses. Calculate the amount of milk and the amount of chocolate that Will demands given these prices and this income.

Let x and y denote the amount of goods X and Y. Find the demand functions...

Let x and y denote the amount of goods X and Y. Find the demand functions of X (do not need to find that of Y) when your preferences are represented by the utility function U = x + xy + y. Is X normal good? Can you confirm law of demand for X? What is the relationship of X with Y? Answer all of them by using the demand curve you derived.

You roll two fair dice, and denote the number they show by X and Y. Let U = min{X, Y } and V = max{X, Y }. Write down the joint probability mass function of (U, V ) and compute ρ(U, V ) i.e the correlation coefficient of U and V

Let X and Y denote the tarsus lengths of female and male grackles, respectively. Assume normal distributions for X and Y. Independent samples are selected from these populations and suppose n X = 17 x ¯ = 32 s X = 7 n Y = 12 y ¯ = 34 s Y = 6 Test at 5% significance level whether the true mean tarsus length of female grackles is smaller than that of male grackles. What is the rejection region...

Let X = NN endowed with the product topology. For x ∈ X denote x by (x1, x2, x3, . . .). (a) Decide if the function given by d : X × X → R is a metric on X where, d(x, x) = 0 and if x is not equal to y then d(x, y) = 1/n where n is the least value for which xn is not equal to yn. Prove your answer. (b) Show that no...
