Practicing Success
The area of the region bounded by $y=|x-5|, x=0 $ and $x=1 $ is : |
16 8 $\frac{9}{2}$ $\frac{25}{2}$ |
$\frac{9}{2}$ |
The correct answer is Option (3) → $\frac{9}{2}$ $y=|x-5|$, $x=0$ to $x=1$ $y=\left\{\begin{matrix}x-5,&x≥5\\5-x,&x<5\end{matrix}\right.$ so area = $\int\limits_0^15-xdx$ $=\left[\frac{5x-x^2}{2}\right]_0^1$ $=5-\frac{1}{2}=\frac{10-1}{2}$ $=\frac{9}{2}$ sq. units |
