Question 2.

• the higher wage income causes workers to take more leisure and work less.

• leisure's higher opportunity cost causes workers to take less leisure and work more.

• the higher wage income causes workers to take more leisure and work more.

• leisure's higher opportunity cost causes workers to take more leisure and work less.
