Suppose You Just Finished Your Third Plateful of Thanksgiving Dinner

Question 158

Multiple Choice

A) Why not? Since the third plateful gave you zero units, the fourth can't give you any less than zero.
B) No way.You could get negative utility from the fourth plateful.
C) Yes or no.It won't make any difference because your total utility is at its peak.
D) Yes.If you received zero units of satisfaction from the third, then obviously the law of diminishing marginal utility is not working in this case.
