Answer to Question 1

To draw a budget line for any pair of goods, you need to know your income and the price of each good. The budget line shows all combinations of the two goods that you can afford. The slope of the budget line is the ratio of the prices and shows, therefore, the rate at which the market requires you to give up some of one for more of the other.
