Answer
total utility of n th unit =TU of n-1 units +MU of n th unit
TU(n)=TU(n-1)+MU(n)
TU(1)=0+20=20
TU(3)=35+10=45
=====
MU(n)=TU(n)-TU(n-1)
MU(n)=marginal utility of n th unit
TU(n)=total utility of n units
TU(n-1)= total utility of n-1 units
MU(2)=35-20=15
MU(4)=40-45=-5
=========
MU is negative for fourth unit
Option D
