Answer to Question 1

Most people probably either eliminated or reduced drastically the washing of cars, the watering of lawns and maybe even the filling of swimming pools. But the drought probably did not have much of an impact on internal consumption, bathing or the brushing of teeth. The items that were curtailed were no doubt those that provided the least amount of marginal utility.

FALSE
