In economics and consumer theory, quasilinear utility functions are linear in one argument, generally the numeraire. Formally, for example, such a utility function could be written U(x,y) = u(x) + by, where b is a positive constant. Then if u'(x) > 0 and u''(x) < 0, the indifference curves are parallel. Because in standard consumer theory utility functions are ordinal, one may assume without loss of generality that b = 1.
