Answer:
The correct answer is: Ongoing Search.
Explanation:
Ongoing Search is the act by which an individual gathers information about certain topics because the search itself is pleasurable for that person. This type of search is not usually carried out with the intention of getting revenues from it but it could lead the individual to get more knowledge on a certain matter.
I believe the answer would be “B. Decrease” apologies if it’s incorrect!
Answer:
lower the cost of producing gasoline and increase the supply of gasoline
Explanation:
Crude oil is an input needed in the production of gasoline. If the price of crude oil falls, it would become cheaper to make gasoline and therefore the supply of gasoline would increase.
Answer:
Falls:rises.
Explanation:
The MU/P (Marginal Utility/Price) ratio for good X is greater than the MU/P (Marginal Utility/Price) ratio for good Y. To achieve consumer equilibrium, the consumer reallocates dollars from the purchase of good Y to the purchase of good X. If the law of diminishing marginal utility holds, the marginal utility of good X falls and the marginal utility of good Y rises.
The law of diminishing marginal utility states that as the unit of a good or service consumed by an individual increases, the additional satisfaction he or she derives from consuming additional units would start decreasing or diminishing as the units of good or service consumed increases.
Also, the marginal utility of goods and services is the additional satisfaction that a consumer derives from consuming or buying an additional unit of a good or service.
Hence, the marginal utility of good X falls and the marginal utility of good Y rises because the consumer no longer derive satisfaction or benefits (utility) from the consumption of good X while he would switch to good Y for satisfaction.
Answer:
Yes, there is no need to change the eatings habits
Explanation:
Ari will maximize utility until
MU / P for both is equal in order to be at equilibrium
So, in this case,
For Hot dogs
= MU / P
where
MU is marginal utils, which is 20
P is Price, which is $2
So,
= 20 / $2
= 10
For Hamburgers
= MU / P
where
MU is marginal utils, which is 25
P is Price, which is $2.5
So,
= 25 / $2.5
= 10
Therefore, MU / P for hot dog = MU / P for Hamburger
Hence, there is not need to change the eatings habits.
