Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An indifference curve represents a combination of two goods that give the consumer the same level of utility or satisfaction. Moving along the same indifference curve indicates that the consumer is indifferent between the different combinations of goods along the curve, and thus, the level of utility the consumer experiences remains constant. However, the specific combination of goods and the quantity of each that the consumer chooses will vary as they move along the curve.
