Question

Utility cannot be link usefulness true or false

Dharmendra Kumar Maheshwari · Accepted Answer

dear student,

False: Utility refers to satisfaction derived from
the consumption of goods and not from its
usefulness A good providing utility to its consumer may or
may not be useful to him

For example, a drug addict obtains satisfaction from drug
consumption However, drugs are not useful to him
