An individual gets 5 units of utility from one slice of pizza and 9 units of utility from two slices of pizza. the principle of diminishing marginal utility implies that the total utility from three slices of pizza will be units of utility.
a. less than 13
b. more than 14
c. less than 9
d. exactly 12

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Marginal utility is the satisfaction gotten from the consumption of one more additional product or service.

It indicates that the satisfaction gotten from an extra product consumed must be less than that derived from the previous product consumed.

from the question, 5 units of utility was derived from the consumption of a slice of pizza, and for two slices consumed, the utility dropped to 4units, which means consuming the third slice the satisfaction derived must be less than 4. if we add these values, 9+4+4 =13. This indicates that the total utility after the third slice must be less than 13.

a.) list the factors of 40.

1/2/4/5/8/10/20/40

b.) list the factors of 40 that represent the number of cans that could be on each shelf.

5

c.) how many different arrangements of cans are possible?

just one because if you put more on one shelf you will go way over 40 and the cabinet will probably break.

d.) what are the possible arrangements of the cans?

put 5 cans on each self to reach 40 cans in total.

e.) which arrangement uses all the shelves?

5 because you can put 5 cans on each shelf, and since there are 8 shelfs you are equally going to get 40 cans.
