Answer 1

Answer: A. Miguel's preferences satisfy the completeness assumption

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information given, Miguel's preferences satisfy the completeness assumption.

According to the completeness axiom, an individual or firm must be able to make a choice whether the economic agent is either indifferent to, or maybe prefers, a particular set of options over other options.

This implies that consumers can rank the possibilities as better, good, bad, worse etc and an indifference curve can be assigned.
