Ans. Option e
Marginal product represents the slope of total product curve. So, between output of 3 to 7 units, the positive marginal product indicates that the total product curve is rising but as the marginal rate is falling and having a negative slope, so, it indicates that total product is increasing at a decreasing rate.
