Question

find the area bounded by y = 1 + x the x axis and the curve y = x(x-4)

Answer 1

@TuringTest any clues

Answer 2

find the intersection of these two curves
can you do that?

Answer 3

1 + x = x(x-4)

Answer 4

yeah, solve it

Answer 5

which give x^2 - 5x -1

Answer 6

=0

Answer 7

yea..after integrating how do i find the area

Answer 8

you can't integrate until you know the bounds, which depend on the intersection points

Answer 9

so i solve the equation get the 2 options of x and them integrate with upper and lower bounds

Answer 10

exactly
