What happens to the slope of the indi?erence curve


1. Determine the following utility function, which specifies Hurry's preferences over two goods, belts (B) and wallets (W).
i. Determine some ?xed level of utility, U0. Write down an expression for B as a function W and U0.
ii. Compute a particular value for U0 (in this case, choose U0 = 6) and determine the value of B for W = 0, 1, 2, and 3.
iii. Plotting these values will yield the U0 = 6 indi?erence curve for this utility function. 
iv. Repeat this process for U1 = 9.

2. Calculate the marginal utility of W? Explain the marginal utility of B?

3. Determine the slope of the U0 indi?erence curve at the B = 4 ?

4. What happens to the slope of the indi?erence curve as we move from U0 to U1 at B = 4?
