Based on the function for the bounded area of the curve, the shaded area bounded by the curve and the x-axis between the points where x = -2 and x = 1 is 12 units².
What is the area of the shaded area?
To find the shaded area, you need to integrate the function of the bounded area as shown below:
= ∫(x² + 3) dx
This gives:
= (x³/3 + 3)
= (1 / 3 + 3) - (8 /3 - 6)
= 1/3 + 3 + 8/3 + 6
= 9/3 + 9
= 12 units²
In conclusion, shaded area bounded by the curve and the x-axis between the points where x = -2 and x = 1 is 12 units².
