Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

False . MRS > MRT implies that the consumer values the next unit of x more than it costs to obtain it. That is, there is a gain from trade to be made. As more x is purchased, MRS falls and eventually MRS = MRT. At this point, all gains from trade have been made.
