Explanation:

The cost of one movie ticket is $8 then Bills' four tickets will be $32.

The cost of a basketball ticket is $28.

Therefore if bill should trade 4 movie tickets for a basketball ticket he will make a loss of $ 4 so it is advisable for bill not to trade movie ticket for basketball ticket. And again his marginal utility per dollar spent on movie tickets is greater than his marginal utility per dollar spent on basketball tickets.
