Mitchell's money income is $150, the price of X is $2, and the price of Y is $2. Given these prices and income, Mitchell buys 50 units of X and 25 units of Y. Call this combination of X and Y bundle J. At bundle J, Mitchell's MRS is 2. At bundle J, if Mitchell increases consumption of Y by 1 unit, how many units of X must he give up in order to satisfy his budget constraint

1 unit of X must be sacrifised to gain a unit of Y, with satisfying Budget Constraint .

Explanation:

Budget Line shows the product combinations that a consumer can buy with given prices & money income (spending all) . Equation : P1X1 + P2X2 = M

Price ratio slope of the budget line i.e = P1/P2 : shows the amount of a good needed to be sacrifised to gain a unit of the other good , given prices & income.

So, Price Ratio : PX / PY = 2 / 2 = 1 in this case; implies 1 unit of Good X is needed to be sacrifised to gain a unit of good Y with given prices & income.

answerthe above statement is false;

it's obviously d. it could be c though.
