Options
- A9 4
- B2
- C5 2
- D5
Correct answer
C. 5 2
Step-by-step solution
Given, equation of line y=2 x+1...(i) Eq. (i) passing through the points ( -1 2 , 0 ) and (0,1) . Required area of shaded region aligned &= _ -1 ^ -1 / 2 -(2 x+1) d x+ Area of A B C &=- [2 ( x² 2 )+x ]_ -1 ^ -1 / 2 + 1 2 A B B C &=- [x²+x ]_ -1 ^ -1 / 2 + 1 2 3 2 3 &=- [ (- 1 2 )²+ (- 1 2 )-(-1)²-(-1) ]+ 9 4 &=- [ 1 4 - 1 2 ]+ 9 4 &= 1 4 + 9 4 = 10 4 = 5 2 sq units aligned
