Question

Assertion (A): TU curve starts from the origin, increases at a decreasing rate, reaches a maximum, and then starts falling.

Reason (R): The rising MU curve shows the law of diminishing marginal utility.

विकल्प

• Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true, and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A).

• Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true, but Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A).

• Assertion (A) is true, but Reason (R) is false.

• Assertion (A) is false, but Reason (R) is true.

Answer 1

Assertion (A) is true, but Reason (R) is false.

Explanation:

The assertion is correct because it explains the shape of the TU curve, but the reasoning is incorrect. The correct statement is that the falling MU curve demonstrates the diminishing marginal utility law.
