1) According to the diagram below, what is the marginal utility for the 3rd unit?
2) Does the diagram below properly depict the “Law of diminishing marginal utility?”
a. Yes, because 10 is less than 15
b. Yes, because it’s increasing but leveling off
c. Depends on which good this represents
d. No, because Total Utility keeps increasing

Recall the text’s definition of diminishing marginal utility: “the common pattern that each marginal unit of a good consumed provides less of an addition to utility than the previous unit.” The reason for this behavior is because of biology. Our body sends our brains a signal once too much of a good or service has been consumed. This prevents a person from literally eating until they explode. In your own experience, share two times instances where the law of diminishing...

1. Which of the following statements best describes the law of diminishing marginal utility? Consumers will purchase more of a good at a lower price, ceteris paribus. Consumers maximize total utility when the marginal utility per dollar spent is equal for all goods consumed. Each successive unit of a good consumed yields less additional utility. Consumers behave rationally when the price of a good equals the marginal utility of the good. 2. Assume the price elasticity of demand for Nike...

1- According to the principle of rational choice, if there is diminishing marginal utility: A) and the price received for supplying a good goes up, you supply less of that good. B) and the price received for supplying a good goes up, you supply more of that good. C) the decision producers face about how much to supply is not affected. D) after a certain point, even if the price goes up, you don't supply more of that good.
