katen-ka-za [31]

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.

The labor force participation rate in simple words refers to the percentage of those who are currently employed or looking for a job within an economy.
