Question
Find the area of the region enclosed between the curves y = 2x2 1 and y = x 1 between x = 1 and x = 2.
NO

QUESTION

Define f(x) = 2x2 1

and g(x) = x 1 as
Maple functions.

(2 marks)
2

Determine the points of

intersection

MAPLE COMMAND

OUTPUT / SOLUTION

Plot and display the

graphs of f and g on the
same axis over the
domain of [0, 3] as
follows:
f(x) with line thickness
= 2 and color = green.
g(x) with line thickness
= 2 and color = blue
display both graphs.

(2.5 marks)
4

Shade and display the

region bounded by the
graphs f(x) and g(x) over
the domain of [1, 2].

(1.5 marks)

Label the graphs of f and

g as follows:
Position the label f(x) at
the coordinate (2.9, 14)
and align = RIGHT.
Position the label g(x) at
the coordinate (2.9, 1)
and align = RIGHT.

(2 marks)
6

Evaluate the area

between both curves
from x = 1 to x = 2.
