Assume that an individual consumes two goods X and Y. The total utility (assumed measurable) of each good is independent of the rate of consumption of other goods. The prices of X and Y are, respectively, $2 and $4.

If the consumer has $22 to spend on X
and Y, the utility-maximizing bundle is
3X and 4Y.
5X and 3Y.
7X and 2Y.
1X and 5Y.
If the consumer buys the fourth unit of X,
the marginal utility of the fourth unit is 68 units of satisfaction.
the marginal utility per dollar spent on X is 39.
the marginal utility per dollar spent on X is 7.
the total utility from X is 180.
