Find the area of the region (see figure) in two ways.
a. Using integration with respect to x.
Graph showing the area between the curves y=2-x and y=x, with shaded region and labeled points (0,2) and (1,1).

검증된 단계별 안내
1
Identify the curves and the region bounded by them. The region is bounded by the lines \(y = 2 - x\) and \(y = x\), between the points where they intersect.
Find the points of intersection by setting the two equations equal: \(2 - x = x\). Solve for \(x\) to find the intersection point(s).
Set up the integral with respect to \(x\). The area between the curves from the left intersection point to the right intersection point is given by the integral of the top function minus the bottom function: \(\int_{a}^{b} [(2 - x) - x] \, dx\).
Simplify the integrand to \(2 - 2x\) and write the definite integral with the limits found in step 2.
Evaluate the integral (without calculating the final value here) to find the area of the region.

Area Between Curves

The area between two curves is found by integrating the difference of the functions over the interval where they intersect. Specifically, if y = f(x) is above y = g(x), the area is the integral of (f(x) - g(x)) dx between the intersection points.

Finding Points of Intersection

To determine the limits of integration, find where the two curves intersect by setting their equations equal and solving for x. These points define the interval over which the area is calculated.

Integration with Respect to x

Integration with respect to x involves summing vertical slices of the region. Each slice has height equal to the difference between the upper and lower functions at a given x, and width dx, allowing calculation of the total area.

In the design of solid objects (both artificial and natural), the ratio of the surface area to the volume of the object is important. Animals typically generate heat at a rate proportional to their volume and lose heat at a rate proportional to their surface area. Therefore, animals with a low SAV ratio tend to retain heat, whereas animals with a high SAV ratio (such as children and hummingbirds) lose heat relatively quickly.


a. What is the SAV ratio of a cube with side lengths a?
