You'll need knowledge the corollary to the FTC here.Do you understand the relationship between the area under a function and its integral?
yes
So what is another relationship between F(x) and f(x)?
or rather, what is the relationship after having applied the corollary to the FTC (sometimes mistaken as the FTC itself)?
I've never heard of corollary to the FTC before
Don't worry about it, you probably know it as the FTC itself
Graphically, what is F(x) given f(x)?
aren't they the same?
no....
\(\color{#000000 }{ \displaystyle {\rm F}(x)=\left.\int\limits_1^x f(t)~dt={\rm F}(t)\right|_1^x={\rm F}(x)-{\rm F}(1) }\) \(\color{#000000 }{ \displaystyle ={\rm F}(x)-{\rm F}(1) }\) Therefore, F(4) is going to be, \(\color{#000000 }{ \displaystyle ={\rm F}(4)-{\rm F}(1) }\)
So, alternatively, that is the area between the f(x) and the x-axis, on the interval \(x \in \{1,4\}\)
You can also see that the area on the interval [3 , 3.5], and the area [3.5 , 4] have the same magnitude, EXCEPT that the first one is negative and the other one is positive, and thus they cancel themselves out.
so i calculate the area of the semi-circle, the rectangle on top, and the triangle?
Yes, exactly! A rectangle 2 units by 1 unit. Plus the area of the half-circle.
the triangles cancel out
yes.
so just semi-circle and rectangle?
Yes.
is it -2-(pi/2)?
yes, very good!
Thank you!
