U = 4T0.5 + N0.5 You have $135 to spend per week for these two goods, T = $5 and N = $2.50
a.
The optimal bundle occurs at when slope of the indifference curve (also known as the Marginal rate of Substitution) equals the slope of budget constraint.
After solving you get optimal bundle equals T= 24 and
N =6
The working is shown in the image below.
Hope this helps. Cheers!
