Explanation / Answer

1- higher total utility is the one that is represented by a higher indifference curve ,

so answer is higher

2- marginal rate of substitution is the rate ta whivch we are able to substitute one good for other such that the level of satisfaction remains the same,

so answer is A

3- an indiference curve is the one that shows various combination of two comodities that a consumer can consume with same level of utility,
