An individual can allocate their 24 hours per day between free time and work, where they earn a wage of $15 per hour. All earnings are spent on consumption. Suppose this individual is currently working 8 hours per day and considers reducing their work time by 2 hours. Which statement accurately analyzes the consequence of this choice on their position within the feasible set of consumption and free time?

An individual has 24 hours per day to allocate between free time and work. They earn a wage of $15 for every hour they work. The 'feasible frontier' represents all the maximum combinations of daily free time and consumption (income) this individual can achieve. Which of the following combinations of daily free time and consumption lies on this individual's feasible frontier?
An individual has 24 hours per day to divide between free time and work, earning a wage of $15 for each hour worked. The income earned is used for daily consumption. The 'feasible set' includes all possible combinations of daily free time and consumption this person can achieve. Consider the specific combination of 16 hours of free time and $90 of consumption. Which of the following statements correctly analyzes this combination?
An individual has 24 hours per day to allocate between free time and work, earning a wage of $15 for each hour worked. The income earned is used for consumption. Given this situation, if the individual chooses to work for 10 hours, it is impossible for them to achieve a daily consumption level of $160.

Analyzing Trade-offs in Time Allocation
An individual has 24 hours a day to allocate between work and free time, earning a wage of $15 per hour. To be on their feasible frontier while achieving a daily consumption of exactly $180, this individual must take exactly ____ hours of free time.
