What's the problem?
I can’t figure out how to solve the rest
What are you solving is what I meant
number 2,
sorry
“6” (2nd on the paper)
i can send the answer key if that helps
Are you trying to find the shaded area?
yes
I’m just confused because all the other examples give the formula but these last three don’t
$\int_2^32x+2dx$
SelahW
yes but i don’t know how to get there
because i know how to solve it but i don’t understand the getting there part
Do you know what an integral is?
yes i do
but i had to go do first aid for the portion of the lesson we are talking about
So we want the area under the curve from $x=2$ to $x=3$
SelahW
(you can compare this to the first one, where we took the area from x=0 to x=3)
Right 👍👍
Hmm
So we don't want the area between the curve and the x axis, we want between the curve and the y axis
So integrate w.r.t y instead of x
i understand but don’t
When we integrate, we have a function (of x) $f(x)=$whatever. Then we do $\int f(x)dx$ to measure area between that curve and the x axis. If we instead have a function of y, $f(y)=\dots$ then we can take the integral with respect to y, $\int f(y)dy$ to measure area between the curve and the y axis
SelahW
So we can turn this into a function of y, by solving for x, $x=\pm\sqrt{y}$ (we only really need the positive part) then integrate that
SelahW
ohhh i get it now!
thank you so much!
