need help on the attachment @Calculus1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok i remember this one. we already found the points of intersection right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lower one was -2 if i remember and biggest one was 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it would be choice 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if my memory is correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

points were -2,0,1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in actuality if you were going to compute this you would have to break up the integral into two parts

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right you are. so if you actually had to compute this, you would have to integrate from -2 to 0 and then from 0 to 1 because the functions switch places at 0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but the question has the absolute value in the integrand, so answer is choice 2 now if you have to compute this in the next question you will have to compute two separate integrals

OpenStudy (anonymous):

next is question is asking to Calculate the area of this shaded region.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so to anticipate the next question, it will be \[\int_{-2}^0 1-x-(1+x=x^2-x^3)dx +\int_0^1(1+x-x^2-x^3)-(1-x)dx\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a) area =35/12 sq. units b) area =10/3 sq. units c) area =9/4 sq. units d) area =37/12 sq. units e) area =17/6 sq. units

OpenStudy (anonymous):

step number one is to actually do the subtraction and step number two is to integrate. that is all you have to make two integrals. first one will be \[\int-2x+x^2+x^3 dx\] second will be \[\int 2x-x^2-x^3dx\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what happen to the endpoints???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

need help Calculating the area of the shaded region.

hero (hero):

I see that. Why don't you just use a calc?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

huh?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

???

hero (hero):

If you really want to learn this get skype so I can show you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are you jk or are you serious?

hero (hero):

What do you think?
