The area (in sq. units) bounded by the curve f x = e - x x ≥ 1 x - 1 + 1 e x < 1 and the x -axis is
Options
- A2 + 2 e 2
- B2 + 1 e 2
- C1 e 2
- D1 + 2 e 2
Correct answer
D. 1 + 2 e 2
Step-by-step solution
∵ Graph of f x is symmetric about x -axis, hence, Area = 2 ∫ 0 ∞ f x d x = 2 1 2 × 1 - 1 e 1 - 1 e + 1 2 × 1 e × 1 e + ∫ 1 ∞ e - x d x = 2 1 2 1 - 2 e + 2 e 2 + - e - x 1 ∞ = 1 - 2 e + 2 e 2 + 2 e = 1 + 2 e 2 sq. units
