Area Question 8

Question 8

  1. The area of the region bounded by the curve y=f(x), the X-axis and the lines x=a and x=b, where <a<b<2, is

(a) abx3[f(x)21]dx+bf(b)af(a)

(b) abx3[f(x)21]dx+bf(b)af(a)

(c) abx3[f(x)21]dxbf(b)+af(a)

(d) abx3[f(x)21]dxbf(b)+af(a)

Show Answer

Solution:

  1. Given, yx2+3x

yx+32294x+322y+94

Since, 0y4 and 0x3

The diagram for the given inequalities is

and points of intersection of curves y=x2+3x and y=4 are (1,4) and (4,4)

Now required area

$=\int_{0}^{1}\left(x^{2}+3 x\right) d x+\int_{1}^{3} 4 d x=\frac{x^{3}}{3}+\frac{3 x^{2}}{2}{ }{0}^{1}+[4 x]{1}^{3}$

=13+32+4(31)=2+96+8=116+8=596 sq units
