If at a quantity consumed of 1 unit, total utility equals 25 and marginal utility equals 25, and at a quantity consumed of 2 units, total utility is unknown and marginal utility is 20, and at a quantity consumed of 3 units, total utility is 57 and marginal utility is unknown, what is marginal utility of the third unit?
Positive marginal utility is when the marginal utility increases the total utility whereas negative marginal utility is when the consumption of an additional unit reduces the amount of the total utility. Is it true or false?
The marginal utility for the third unit of X is 60 utils, and the marginal utility for the fourth unit of X is 45 utils. If the law of diminishing marginal utility holds, what is the minimum total utility?
