The slope of the budget constraint A. measures the rate at which the consumer can trade one good for another. B. equals the relative price of the two goods. C. reflects the trade-off the market is offering the consumer. D. all of the above are correct.

B. equals the relative price of the two goods.

Explanation:

A budget constraint refers to how much money a person or a company has to spend in any given pair of goods or services, e.g. you have $10 and you want to eat hot dogs and drink Coke.

The slope of the budget constraint refers to the relative price of the two goods or services, e.g. a hot dogs costs $2 and a Coke costs $1.50. The slope of the budget constraint = $1.50 / $2 = 0.75. The slope of a budget constraint is always equal or less than 1, that is why the smallest value is the numerator.
