The table gives the total utility Jamal derives from the consumption of eclairs and cream puffs. Jamal has $12 to spend on these two confectionery goods. The price of an eclair is $3 and the price of a cream puff is $1.50. a) Jamal's budget is $12. In order for Jamal to maximize his utility, how many eclairs and cream puffs should he buy? b) Suppose the price of an eclair increases to $6. Jamal's income does not change and neither does the price of a cream puff. What combination of eclairs and cream puffs will Jamal buy now? c) Using your answers to parts (a) and (b), derive two points on Jamal's demand curve for eclairs.

Solve the problem. A croissant, a cup of coffee, and a fruit bowl from Kelley's Coffee Cart cost a total of $5.25. Kelley posts a notice announcing that, effective next week, the price of a croissant will go up 25% and the price of coffee will go up 40%. After the increase, the total price of the purchase will be $4.80 and a fruit bowl will cost 3 times as much as a croissant. Find the cost of each item before the increase. The prices cannot be determined from the given information. Coffee costs $1.75, a croissant costs $0.50, and a fruit bowl costs $3.00. Coffee costs $0.75, a croissant costs $1.50, and a fruit bowl costs $3.00. Coffee costs $1.25, a croissant costs $1.25, and a fruit bowl costs $2.75.
