Concept explainers
To find: approximate x −coordinate of the points of intersection of the given curves using a graph and then find (approximately) the area of the region bounded by the curves.
Answer to Problem 20E
They intersect at x =0 and
The area of the region bounded by the curves
Explanation of Solution
Given information: Given curves are
Calculation:
Using graph utility, the graph of
They intersect at x =0 and
Let’s do the indefinite integral of f(x) before putting it all together.
Subtract the bottom function from the top one and integrate to find area of the region bounded by the curves.
