The area of the region bounded by y = √(x − 1), x = 2, x = 5 and y = 0 is:
The area of the region bounded by y = √(x − 1), x = 2, x = 5 and y = 0 is:
- A. 14/3 sq units
- B. 16/3 sq units
- C. 8/3 sq units
- D. 10/3 sq units
Answer: A) 14/3 sq units
Explanation: Area = ∫[2 to 5] √(x − 1) dx = ∫[1 to 4] √t dt (t = x−1) = [t^(3/2) / (3/2)]₁⁴ = (2/3)(8 − 1) = 14/3 sq units.
