    Your video was a savior! I could answer one of the questions from my eco assignment which is due in a few hours with the help of this video. You helped someone today and that someone is really grateful! :)

    Hi, would you explain why each unit of x requires 2 units of y? Thank you! :) Grateful for your reply.

      +Yuki Izawa Set what's in parenthesis equal to get 2x = y. If you plug x = 1 into the last equation, you get 2(1) = y, or y = 2. So, if x =1, you need 2 units of y. If you had two units of x, you would need 2(2) = y, or y = 4. Therefore, every unit of x needs 2 units of y. I hope this helps.

      1sportingclays thank you! No wonder! I was still wondering how did you deduce that without workings :)

      @@EconomicsinManyLessons Hello, thank you for this very helpful video, I do have a question though lets say we have 3x=4y in this case what would the ratio of x to y be for perfect complements and why? (Thank you again for any help !)

    • @EconomicsinManyLessons

      @@am11a84 Solve the equation 3X = 4Y for X/Y. In this case, X/Y = 4/3. The ratio of X to Y is four-thirds a unit of X to one unit of Y.

    why each unit of X must be consumed with two units of Y is 2x=y?isnt it x=2y?

    if this equation is rather min(aX, bY*2) or y square, would we solve it in the same way??? Kindly guide

    I think you mean that the maximum utility a consumer can get is 20 when income is 140.

      I use a lot of sources, including my own material and notes when I was a student.
      For intermediate microeconomics: I have the following textbooks:
      Microeconomic Theory: Basic Principles and Extensions by Nicholson
      Microeconomics Theory and Applications with Calculus by Perloff
      Intermediate Microeconomics by Varian
      Microeconomics by Goolsbee, Levitt, and Syverson
