The dots are called vertices and the lines are called edges. Formally‚ a (finite) graph G consists of A finite set V whose elements are called the vertices of G; A finite set E whose elements are called the edges of G; A function that assigns to each edge e ∈ E an unordered pair of vertices called the endpoints of e. This function is called the edge-endpoint

Required: Show that the equilibrium condition and consumer equilibrium under both cardinal and ordinal utility theory are identical. They both assume that the consumer is rational. Consumer equilibrium‚ under cardinal utility theory‚ is achieved when the sufficient condition is met. That is‚ the total expenditure is equal to the consumer’s income. If a consumer is assumed to consumes two commodities only X and Y‚ then: Utility is a function of Y and X; U = f(X‚Y)…………………………..i Let the price
