Deriving Marshallian and Hicksian Demand (Compensated and Uncompensated Demand)

Consider the utility function U(x,y)=xy subject to an Income constraint; M=px+py

Find the Marshallian and Hicksian Demand Functions for good x and good y .

These two types of demand functions compliment each other. Hicksian Demand concerns minimising the costs associated with attaining a particular level of utility, Marshallian Demand concerns maximising utility for a given level of income.
