Law of diminishing marginal utility a b c d e f g Oranges Mangoes As you consume more and more units of one good, you need to give up more and more units of other. Give up 5 mangoes & add 2 oranges Give up 6 mangoes & add 1 orange Give up 2 Mangoes & add 2 oranges O

Equation of the budget line kX + lY = M M = total amount of money k & l = Prices of two goods Budget line in terms of Y = a + bX kX + lY = M lY = – kX + M Y = – k X + M l l M = intercept = 300 = 30 - K = P x = slope l 10 l P y
