what is the area between the parabol and the line ? on picture

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

integrate from 0 to 2 bigger minus smaller

OpenStudy (amistre64):

no latex? ---goes into shock and disbelief---

OpenStudy (anonymous):

int 0 to 2 -4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i guess it is \[\int_0^2 2x-x^2dx\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well i thoug ishuld firstly foun s1 the triangle then i think i can integrate

OpenStudy (anonymous):

laptop hard for me to type on. just trying to explain

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but dunno the limits :( and what shuld i integrate :(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well i thoug ishuld firstly foun s1 the triangle then i think i can integrate That's what I would do...

OpenStudy (amistre64):

whew! the universe is back on track

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what on earth?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thougt like that too estudier :D

OpenStudy (amistre64):

estudier is having a stroke

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the area of the triangle is 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Triangle area is 4, why integrate something difficult if u don't need to?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so we just shuld find the total area, s1 + the area between the parabol and the line

OpenStudy (anonymous):

call the para medics

OpenStudy (amistre64):

in brief; its the area under the parabola minus the area of the triangle ..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes..

OpenStudy (amistre64):

the limits of integration, unless otherwise stated, are prolly where the curves meet

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i thought that but i culd not find the integral :d

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oooooooooooooooh i see what you mean. yes we get 4 from triangle whew

OpenStudy (anonymous):

finaly xd

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then integrate \[\int_0^2 4-x^2dx\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so to find the area, what shuld the integration be?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm let me do that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

o to 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Seems like, just calculate intersection...

OpenStudy (amistre64):

the limits of integration are where: 4-2x = 4-x^2 ; solve for x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

get \[8-\frac{8}{3}\] subtract 4 get \[4-\frac{8}{3}\] whatever that is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x = 4 here, and y = 2 here..

OpenStudy (amistre64):

ohohoh ... now do it in celtic runes ;)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:) so its 4 to 2? or 0 to 2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2x ¨= x^2 right?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

we could just do it from y = 0 to 4 :)

OpenStudy (amistre64):

no need to stick with the x axis

OpenStudy (anonymous):

o and 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i should just shut up and let sensei finish, but this is too much fun. the limits of integration are right in the picture. set the equations equal and solve you will see that just like in the picture they intersect at x = 0 and x = 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

mhmh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-x^2 +2x = 0 -> x is 0 or 2

OpenStudy (amistre64):

lol .... green sensei or blue sensei?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what estudier said, but also wht is in the picture you provided.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so can we focus on questions please?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

we are, we are ... but there are a few ways to go about it ...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well just find total area, total area - 4 = S!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\color{green}{\text{green sensei}}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So what's 4x- x^3/3 at 2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a ) 3/2, b) 5/2, c)4/3, d) 7/3, e)9/4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok bigger function is \[4-x^2\] smaller is \[2-2x\] subtract to get \[-x^2+2x=2x-x^2\] then integrate \[\int_0^2 2x-x^2dx\] as i write up top

OpenStudy (anonymous):

solved in very first line. take antideriviative, plug in 2 and be done

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 4r - (r^3 / 3) we have :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for 2, its 16/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no it is \[x^2-\frac{x^2}{3}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

plug in 2, get \[4-\frac{8}{3}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

whops right :D i wrote worng...!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

.. its 4/3 now what?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now you are done

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oO solution is 4/3??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

smaller is 2-2x?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thought it was 4-2x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well m2,buy its 2-r^2..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It is 4-2x so its 8-8/3 -4, right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

God, I hate numbers, give me algebra any day of the week

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and one more question, where we got this 2 - x^2 from, i juts don't got it :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think we are mixing up methods here.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's what i said to start with: Int 4 -x^2, 0 and 2 is 4x -x^3/3 = 8-8/3 then knock off the triangle of 4.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lorda mercy you still working this problem? integral is the very top post. it is not \[\int 2-x^2dx\] it is \[\int 2x-x^2dx\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

U said smaller is 2-2x, it isn't, it's 4-2x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Your integral gives same result as mine ie 4-8/3 = 4/3 for the desired area.
