    Diminishing marginal returns sets in when slope of the marginal product line equals zero and after that marginal product is negative. I would encourage you to watch the entire playlist (there are only three videos). You should even try to watch the calculus proof. I included a link to the playlist in the video description.

    When you say slope of a curve for a particular value of labour is the marginal product, are you not confusing the nature of the data you work with, i.e discrete (which is the data used for production, and hence the need for average rate of change between successive units of labour) rather than continuous (instantaneous change)?

    This confuses me because this graph isn't linear. It looks like a quadratic function which would imply that the slope should be based off the derivative as opposed to simply relating two coordinates. I see that the slope changes, but does using rise over run calculate your marginal accurately when dealing with non linear functions?
