Question:

The area in the first quadrant bounded by y = 4x2, x = 0 y = 1, and y = 4 is

Options:

2 sq. units

$2\frac{1}{2}$ sq. units

$2\frac{1}{3}$ sq. units

3 sq. units

Correct Answer:

$2\frac{1}{3}$ sq. units

Explanation:

Required area =$\int\limits_1^4x\,dy$

$ =\int\limits_1^4\frac{\sqrt{y}}{2}dy =\frac{1}{2}[\frac{2}{3}y^{3/2}]_1^4$

$=\frac{1}{3}[4^{3/2}-1] = 2\frac{1}{3}$ sq. units.

Hence (C) is the correct answer.
