In Problem 4, Murphy used to consume 100 units of X and 50 units of Y when the price of X was $2 and the price of Y was $4. If the price of X rose to $6 and the price of Y rose to $6, how much would Murphy's income have to rise so that he could still afford his original bundle?

In Problem 3, if you could exactly afford either 4 units of x and 27 units of y, or 9 units of x and 7 units of y, then if you spent all of your income on y, how many units of y could you buy?

In Problem 3, if you could exactly afford either 4 units of x and 8 units of y, or 6 units of x and 2 units of y, then if you spent all of your income on y, how many units of y could you buy?

In Problem 10, if in the same amount of time that it takes her to read 40 pages of economics and 30 pages of sociology, Martha could read 20 pages of economics and 90 pages of sociology, then which of these equations describes combinations of pages of economics, E, and sociology, S, that she could read in the time it takes to read 40 pages of economics and 30 pages of sociology?
