Can someone help me with this?
Use the fundamental theorem of calculus \[\int\limits_{0}^{6}f'(x) = f(6) - f(0)\] And the definite integral also represents area under a curve Find the area by adding up the area of the square and triangle then subtract area of small triangle below x-axis. Set this value equal to f(6) - 7 and solve for f(6)
Hope that helps. anyway answer is 12 so you can check your work.
hmm can you show the working out? i am kind of confused how to do.
explain it more please.
Ok find the area under the given curve. From 0 to 2 looks like a square of length 2. Area = 4 From 2 to 4 looks like a triangle of base 2 and height 2. Area = 2 From 4 to 6 is a triangle of base 2 and height 1. Its on the neg side. Area = -1 Add up these areas. From 0 to 6 is 4+2-1 = 5 Therefore \[\int\limits_{0}^{6}f'(x) dx = f(6) - f(0) = 5\] Given f(0) = 7 f(6) - 7 = 5 f(6) = 12
Thanks!!
