when total utility is decreasing marginal utility will decrease

Answer 2

Answer:

So long as total utility is increasing, marginal utility is decreasing up to the 4th unit. When total utility is maximum at the 5th unit, marginal utility is zero. It is the point of satiety for the consumer. When total utility is decreasing, marginal utility is negative (the 6th and the 7th units).
