The area (in sq. units) of the region bounded by curves $y=3 x+1, y=4 x+1$ and $x=3$ is

The area (in sq. units) of the region bounded by curves $y=3 x+1, y=4 x+1$ and $x=3$ is
  1. $\frac{7}{2}$
  2. $\frac{9}{5}$
  3. $\frac{9}{2}$
  4. $\frac{7}{5}$

Solution

$\begin{aligned} \text { Required area } & =\cdot \int_0^3[4 x+1-(3 x+1)] \mathrm{d} x \\ & =\int_0^3 x \mathrm{~d} x \\ & =\left[\frac{x^2}{2}\right]_0^3 \\ & =\frac{9}{2} \text { sq. units }\end{aligned}$
