Integrals - Area under the curve

• Bounds of Integration

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify

y = x + 1

y = 4 - x

y = 0

x = 0

Step 2: Identify Info

Graph the functions - See Attachment

Bounds of Integration: [0, 4]

Point of Intersection: x = 1.5

Step 3: Find Area

1. Set up [Integral - Area]:                                                                                 $\displaystyle A = \int\limits^{1.5}_0 {(x + 1)} \, dx + \int\limits^4_{1.5} {(4 - x)} \, dx$
