Steve consumes two goods, tacos, T, and Red Bull soda, R. His income is $60 per week, the price of tacos is $3 and the price of Red Bull is $2. [2'] A) What is the equation for his budget line? Suppose we graph the budget line with Red Bull on the vertical axis and Tacos on the horizontal axis (this sentence matters!). You don't need to draw the actual budget constraint. [1'] B) What is the economic interpretation of the slope of the budget line? Below I have drawn an indifference curve for Steve. Again, suppose we label Red Bull on the vertical axis, and label Tacos on the horizontal axis (this sentence matters!). Below I have drawn an indifference curve for Steve. Again, suppose we label Red Bull on the vertical axis, and label Tacos on the horizontal axis (this sentence matters!). [2'] C) What is the economic interpretation of the slope of the indifference curve? [1'] D) Explain the relevance of the changing slope as a person moves along the curve from left to right.
