The individual has a utility function of u(x1, x2) = min (4x1, 5x2) and faces prices p1=2 and p2=1. We know they consume 20 units of x2 and spend all their income. What is the demand function for x1?

A consumer has income M, and faces prices (for goods 1 and 2) p1 and p2. For each of the following utility functions, graphically show the following: (i) the Slutsky substitution and income e⁄ects when p1 decreases. (ii) the Hicks substitution and income e⁄ects when p1 decreases. (iii) the Marshallian and Hicksian demand curves for good 1: (a) perfect complements: U(x1 , x2) = min {4x1, 5x2} (b) quasi-linear: U(x1 , x2) = x^2/3 1 + x2
