Find the area of the region bounded by the curve y = x², the x-axis, and the lines x = 1 and x = 3.
Model Answer & Options
Source: Extra Practice26/3 sq. units
8/3 sq. units
27/3 sq. units
9 sq. units
Explanation
The area is given by the definite integral of y with respect to x from x=1 to x=3. Area = ∫[1 to 3] x² dx = [x³/3] from 1 to 3. Substituting the limits: (3³/3) - (1³/3) = 27/3 - 1/3 = 26/3. Option B is incorrect as it uses limits 0 to 2. Options C and D are calculation errors.
