How many definite integrals would be required to represent the area of the region enclosed by the curves y = cos2x sinx and y = 0.03x2, assuming you could not use the absolute value function?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

cos(2x) ? or cos^2(x) ?

OpenStudy (nathanjhw):

cos^2(x)

OpenStudy (nathanjhw):

and 0.03x^2

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

Does it specify the limits of integration? There are multiple enclosed regions.

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

I guess they could mean all 3 since 3 regions isn't too bad

OpenStudy (nathanjhw):

That is all the information I was given.

OpenStudy (nathanjhw):

The answers are 1,2,3,4,5

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

well this is what I get when you graph the 2 functions

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

I've filled in the enclosed regions
