Answer:
D) $3
Explanation:
Consumer Surplus refers to the difference between the actual price paid by a consumer and the price the consumer was willing to pay. Surplus arises in cases wherein the price consumer was willing to pay exceeds the price he actually paid.
In the given case, the consumer was willing to pay a total of $9 i.e ($5 + $4) for 2 units of pizza. He actually ended up paying $6 i.e ($3 × 2 slices).
Thus, his total consumer surplus can be calculated as $9 - $6 = $3
