A consumer has preferences between two goods hamburgers


A consumer has preferences between two goods, hamburgers (measured by H) and milkshakes (measured by M). His preferences over the two goods are represented by the utility function U = √H + √M. For this utility function MUH = 1/(2√H) and MUM = 1/(2√M). a) Determine if there is a diminishing MRSH,M for this utility function. (1 point) b) The consumer has an income of $24 per week. The price of a hamburger is $2 and the price of a milkshake is $1. How many milkshakes and hamburgers will he buy each week if he maximizes utility?
