Suppose David spends his income (I) on two goods, x and y, whose market prices are px and py, respectively. His preferences are represented by the utility function u(x, y) = lnx + 2lny (MUx = 1/x, MUy = 2/y).

a. Derive his demand functions for x and y. Are they homogeneous in income and prices?

b. Assuming I = $60 and px = $1, graph his demand curve for y.

c. Repeat part (b) for the case in which px = $2.
