A) Oscar's Total utility from purchasing 3 video games and 2 pepsis = 21

B) The quantity of video games and Pepsi maximizes Oscar’s utility = 2 video games and 5 Pepsi

C) When the price of Coca cola drops :   Oscars' demand for pepsi will drop

D) Pepsi is an <u>Inferior good </u>because it has a negative income elasticity

E) The cross-price elasticity for video games and computer equipment  is : <u>Positive</u>

<h3>Analysis of the solutions </h3>

<u>A) The total utility from purchasing 3 video games and 2 pepsis</u>

marginal utility of 3 videos games = 12

marginal utility of 2 pepsi = 9

therefore total utility = 12 + 9 = 21

<u></u>

<u>B) </u><u>The </u><u>quantity </u><u>of video games and Pepsi maximizes Oscar’s utility</u>

The quantity of video games with the maximum utility ( 20 ) = 1

The quantity of video games with the maximum utility ( 10 ) =  1

<u>Given that :</u>

Oscars weekly income = $20

price of video game = $5

price of pepsi = $2

After the first purchase of video games and pepsi

$20 - $7 = $13

after the next purchase

$13 - $7 = $6

The balance $6 will purchase 3 more pepsi

Therefore the quantity of Video games to be purchased = 2 ( $10 )  (i.e.  15 utility )

Quantity of Pepsi to be purchased = 5 ( $10 ) ( i.e. 6 utility )

C) When the price of Coca cola drops Oscars' demand for Pepsi will drop as Coca cola is a competitor/superior  product.

D) Pepsi is an inferior good

E) The cross price elasticity for video games and computer equipment is <u>positive </u>

1. I believe the role of community in reducing crime is not to actively catch the criminals, but through the act of helping those in need within their community.
When members of the community help each other, people wouldn't be in a situation where they struggle to find food.
This alone will dramatically reduce the number of crimes.

2. I believe it's because there is nobody that dare to say and ackonwledge their community has a problem because of the fear of being judged.
Somebody need to step up and openly say that members of community that conducted the criminal acts must be shamed and encourage those who don't to work together and develop their own economy.
