Math Problem Statement
For each of the following utility functions, draw at least three indifference curves with small arrows pointing in the direction of preferred bundles, and explain whether the preferences represented by the utility functions are strictly convex. (c) π(π₯1, π₯2) = max{π₯1, 2π₯2}
