Marginal analysis involves making decisions based on the additional benefit or cost of each decision. In this case, deciding whether to eat one more slice of pizza or not is an example of marginal analysis as you are weighing the benefit of satisfying your hunger further with the cost of potential discomfort or health consequences of overeating. The other options mentioned do not involve marginal analysis as they do not involve weighing the additional benefit or cost of each decision.
