The diagram shows the curve with equation \(y = 5 + 2x - x^2\) and the line with equation \(y = 2\). The curve and the line intersect at the points A and B.
a) Find the x-coordinates of A and B.
b) The shaded region R is bounded by the curve and the line. Find the area of R.
b) Area = \(\int_{-1}^3 (5 + 2x - x^2) dx - \int_{-1}^3 2 dx\)
= \(\int_{-1}^3 (3 + 2x - x^2) dx\)
= \(\left[3x + x^2 - \frac{x^3}{3}\right]_{-1}^3\)
= \(9 + 9 - 9 - (-3 + 1 + \frac{1}{3}) = \frac{32}{3}\)
The diagram shows part of the curve with equation \(y = x^3 - 6x^2 + 9x\). The curve touches the x-axis at A and has a local maximum at B.
a) Show that the equation of the curve may be written as \(y = x(x - 3)^2\), and hence write down the coordinates of A.
b) Find the coordinates of B.
c) The shaded region R is bounded by the curve and the x-axis. Find the area of R.
The diagram shows a sketch of the curve with equation \(y = 12x^{\frac{1}{2}} - x^{\frac{3}{2}}\) for \(0 \leq x \leq 12\).
a) Show that \(\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{3}{2}x^{-\frac{1}{2}}(4 - x)\).
b) At the point B on the curve the tangent to the curve is parallel to the x-axis. Find the coordinates of the point B.
c) Find, to 3 significant figures, the area of the finite region bounded by the curve and the x-axis.
The diagram shows the curve C with equation \(y = x(8 - x)\) and the line with equation \(y = 12\) which meet at the points L and M.
a) Determine the coordinates of the point M.
b) Given that N is the foot of the perpendicular from M on to the x-axis, calculate the area of the shaded region which is bounded by NM, the curve C and the x-axis.
The diagram shows the line \(y = x - 1\) meeting the curve with equation \(y = (x - 1)(x - 5)\) at A and C. The curve meets the x-axis at A and B.
a) Write down the coordinates of A and B and find the coordinates of C.
b) Find the area of the shaded region bounded by the line, the curve and the x-axis.
a) Complete the table below, giving the missing values of y to 3 decimal places.
\(y = \frac{5}{x^2 + 1}\)
b) Use the trapezium rule, with all the values of y from your table, to find an approximate value for the area of R.
c) Use your answer from part b to find an approximate value for \(\int_0^3 (4 + \frac{5}{x^2 + 1}) dx\)
The curve A with equation \(y = 8 + 4x - x^2\) and the curve B with equation \(y = x^2 - 4x + 8\) intersect at two points M and N.
