Options
- A2 2 - 1
- B2 - 1
- C2 - 2
- D1 - 2 2
Correct answer
B. 2 - 1
Step-by-step solution
The required area is given by the integral of the upper curve minus the lower curve between the given limits. In the interval x [0, 4 ] , x x . Area = ₀^ /4 ( x - x) dx = [ x + x]₀^ /4 = ( 4 + 4 ) - ( 0 + 0) = ( 1 2 + 1 2 ) - (0 + 1) = 2 - 1 Answer: 2 - 1
