Assume you have a budget of $600 for travel that you will spend
on gasoline and food. Assume the price of gasoline is $5.00 per
gallon and the price of food is $15 per meal.
Graph the budget line placing food on the horizontal axis
indicating the x and y intercept values (the maximum possible of
each).
On your graph as point A show the consumer purchases 75 units
of gasoline. How many meals can be purchased? Clearly label
this point on your graph.
Graph the new budget line when the price of meals increases to
