OpenStudy (danjs):

This one would be easier to integrate over dy

OpenStudy (danjs):

OpenStudy (danjs):

y from 0 to 1, then y from 1 to 4

OpenStudy (danjs):

put your equations in terms of x = ....

OpenStudy (danjs):

Or if you wanted to integrate over x instead still.... you would need to do x from 0 to 1, of the green line 4 - 3x then subtract the integral from 0 to 1 of the red line y = x

OpenStudy (danjs):

Both of those could be done using the simple area of a triangle formula. since they are all straight lines. but

OpenStudy (danjs):

that could be a way to check if your integrals are correct, find the area of the region using area of triangle = half base times height

OpenStudy (danjs):

the region in question has a base of 4 and a height of 1, area is half of 4 times 1, or Area = 2

OpenStudy (danjs):

Here is the integral...

OpenStudy (danjs):

\[\int\limits_{0}^{1}(4-3x)dx - \int\limits_{0}^{1}(x) dx \]

OpenStudy (danjs):

Which evaluates to the same as the area using the triangle formula, 2

OpenStudy (danjs):

U understand, or what dont make sense?

OpenStudy (wade123):

(4-3x)??

OpenStudy (wade123):

ohhh nevermind

OpenStudy (wade123):

yeah i think i understand(:

OpenStudy (wade123):

i got 4 before because i didnt divide it by 2

OpenStudy (danjs):

You take the whole area under the green line from 0 to 1, then subtract that little area under the red line from 0 to 1

OpenStudy (danjs):

The integrals work out to be 2 so does the same thing using triangle formula

OpenStudy (wade123):

thanks(:

OpenStudy (danjs):

taking me back to calc 1 days years ago. lol these are kinda fun to do
