• You can graph the functions again by turning the functions off and then turning them back on on the Y= editor or by using the FuncOFF and FuncON commands on the home screen. Finding the Area between Curves Problem Find the area of the region bounded by: f(x) = 300x / (x2 + 625) g(x) = 3cos(.1x) x = 75 Procedure 1. Press z. Select the default mode settings. 2. Press p. Set the viewing window. Xmin=0 Xmax=100 Xscl=10 Ymin=L5 Ymax=10 Yscl=1 Xres=1 3. Press o. Turn off all functions and stat plots. Enter the upper and lower functions. Y1=300Xà(X2+625) Y2=3cos(.1X) 4. Press y / 5 to select 5:Intersect. The graph is displayed. Select a first curve, second curve, and guess for the intersection toward the left side of the display. The solution is displayed, and the value of X at the intersection, which is the lower limit of the integral, is stored in Ans and X. 5. Press y 5 to go to the home screen. Press y < 7 and use Shade( to see the area graphically. Shade(Y2,Y1,Ans,75) 6. Press y 5 to return to the home screen. Enter the expression to evaluate the integral for the shaded region. fnInt(Y1NY2,X,Ans,75) The area is 325.839962. Chapter 17: Activities 316
