Indifference Curve +a curve that shows combinations of goods among which an individual is indifferent. Law of diminishing marginal rate of substitution +as you get more and more of a good, the marginal addition of another good you need to keep you on your toes. The slope of the Budget Constraint is the ratio of the prices of the two goods.

Graphing the Budget Constraint Chocolate bars cost $1 and sodas cost 50 cents each. Sophie has $10 to spend. She can buy 10 chocolate bars or 20 sodas or some combination of each.
Graphing the Budget Constraint The slope of the budget constraint is the ratio of the prices of the two goods. The slope changes when the prices change.
Graphing the Indifference Curve Indifference curve – a curve that shows combinations of goods among which an individual is indifferent. The slope of the indifference curve is the ratio of marginal utilities of the two goods.
Graphing the Indifference Curve Marginal rate of substitution – the rate at which one good must be added when the other is taken away in order to keep the individual indifferent between the two combinations.
Graphing the Indifference Curve Law of diminishing marginal rate of substitution – as you get more and more of a good, if some of that good is taken away, then the marginal addition of another good you need to keep you on your indifference curve gets less and less.
Indifference Curves and Budget Constraints Sophie will maximize her utility by consuming on the highest indifference curve as possible, given her budget constraint.
Indifference Curves and Budget Constraints The best combination is the point where the slope of the budget line equals the slope of the indifference curve.
Deriving a Demand Curve from the Indifference Curve The point of tangency of the indifference curve and the budget line gives the quantity that a person would buy at a given price.
Deriving a Demand Curve from the Indifference Curve By varying the price of one of the goods while holding the price of other constant, the points of tangency will change. This gives alternative price/quantity combinations.
