Let f : [ - 3 , 1 ] → R be given as f x = m i n ( x + 6 ) ,   x 2 , - 3 ≤ x ≤ 0 m a x…

Let f:[-3,1]R be given as fx=min(x+6), x2,-3x0maxx, x2,0x1.If the area bounded by y=f(x) and x-axis is A sq units, then the value of 6A is equal to

Solution

Given f:[-3,1]R, fx=min(x+6), x2,-3x0maxx, x2, 0x1

We have x+6=x2

x2-x-6=0

x-3x+2=0

x=3 & -2.

Also, x=x2

x2-x=0

xx32-1=0

x=0 & x=1.

Hence, the region bounded by fx is given by the following graph.

Hence, the area bounded by y=f(x) and x-axis is

A=-3-2(x+6)dx+-20x2dx+01xdx

A=x22+6x-3-2+x33-20+2x32301

A=42-12-92-18+0+83+2×1-03

A=-10+272+83+23

A=416 sq units.

6A=41.
