Answer to Question 2

People making rational decisions compare the marginal benefits of different actions to their marginal costs.

Just as everyone else, students respond to incentives; a) A student studies because of the incentives offered by grades. b) A student is more likely to attend a class if attendance is factored into the grade. c) A student might attend a meeting of a club if the student's significant other is eager to attend the meeting.
