4. Problems 3.4 One way to show convexity of indifference curves is to show that for any two points (xi, yi) and (x2, y2) on an indifference curve that promises U -k, the utility associated with(, 2) is at least as great as k. In other words, one way to show convexity is to show that the following conditions hold and The following graph shows an indifference curve for the utility function U(x,y)-min(x,y), where U x,y) = min(x)) points (xı...
