Currently consuming 4 units if he increases the consumption from 4 to 5 units, total utility doesn't change but marginal utility falls to 0
Marginal utility cuts horizontal axis because as more and units is consumed by consumers her marginal utility falls at reached at a point where if he consumes more then marginal utility became unbearable and became negative. All this done because of law of diminishing marginal utility.

13. In economics, an individual person is assumed to be rational and self-interested seeking to maximize utility in various ways including from the consumption of goods and services. What one does is to achieve a certain goal. So he/she is rational. Why one does is to feel good or happy. So he/she is a self-interested utility seeker. The term 'utility' means satisfaction or happiness. Utility is difficult to quantify. But for purposes of illustration we assume that people can measure...

Model
1) Biwei’s marginal use value for chamomile tea consumption is
MU=-2Q+6, where Q is the box
quantity of chamomile tea consumed and takes only integer values.
Draw the marginal use value
curve and total use value curve for Q less than 5. If the price for
a box of chamomile tea is $4, how
many boxes will Biwei consume per week? If the price drops to $2,
how many boxes will Biwei...
