1. Determine the following utility function, which specifies Hurry's preferences over two goods, belts (B) and wallets (W).
i. Determine some ?xed level of utility, U0. Write down an expression for B as a function W and U0.
ii. Compute a particular value for U0 (in this case, choose U0 = 6) and determine the value of B for W = 0, 1, 2, and 3.
iii. Plotting these values will yield the U0 = 6 indi?erence curve for this utility function.
iv. Repeat this process for U1 = 9.
2. Calculate the marginal utility of W? Explain the marginal utility of B?
3. Determine the slope of the U0 indi?erence curve at the B = 4 ?
4. What happens to the slope of the indi?erence curve as we move from U0 to U1 at B = 4?
