If he swims 40,000 yards per week, his time will be 51.08 seconds, and he will come in third. If he swims 60,000 yards per week, his time will be 50.40 seconds, and he will win the meet. Use calculus to determine Ben's marginal productivity of time given the number of yards he practices. Is there diminishing marginal productivity of practice yards? Ben's marginal productivity of swim time given y practice yards (MP) is (Properly format your expression using the tools in the palette. Hover over tools to see keyboard shortcuts.
