The correct Answer is:
To find the area bounded by the parabolas \( y = 4x^2 \), \( y = \frac{x^2}{9} \), and the line \( y = 2 \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Find the points of intersection We need to find the points where the curves intersect. This will help us determine the limits of integration. 1. Set \( y = 4x^2 \) equal to \( y = 2 \): \[ 4x^2 = 2 \implies x^2 = \frac{1}{2} \implies x = \pm \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} = \pm \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} \] 2. Set \( y = \frac{x^2}{9} \) equal to \( y = 2 \): \[ \frac{x^2}{9} = 2 \implies x^2 = 18 \implies x = \pm 3\sqrt{2} \] 3. Set \( y = 4x^2 \) equal to \( y = \frac{x^2}{9} \): \[ 4x^2 = \frac{x^2}{9} \implies 36x^2 = x^2 \implies 35x^2 = 0 \implies x = 0 \] The points of intersection are \( x = -3\sqrt{2}, -\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}, 0, \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}, 3\sqrt{2} \). ### Step 2: Set up the integral for the area The area \( A \) can be calculated by integrating the difference between the upper curve and the lower curve from the leftmost intersection point to the rightmost intersection point. The area can be expressed as: \[ A = 2 \int_{0}^{2} \left( \sqrt{y} \cdot 3 - \sqrt{y} \cdot \frac{1}{3} \right) dy \] ### Step 3: Simplify the integral The integral simplifies to: \[ A = 2 \int_{0}^{2} \left( 3\sqrt{y} - \frac{1}{3}\sqrt{y} \right) dy = 2 \int_{0}^{2} \left( \frac{8}{3}\sqrt{y} \right) dy \] ### Step 4: Solve the integral Now we can solve the integral: \[ A = 2 \cdot \frac{8}{3} \cdot \int_{0}^{2} y^{1/2} dy \] The integral of \( y^{1/2} \) is: \[ \int y^{1/2} dy = \frac{y^{3/2}}{\frac{3}{2}} = \frac{2}{3} y^{3/2} \] Evaluating from 0 to 2: \[ = \frac{2}{3} \left[ (2)^{3/2} - (0)^{3/2} \right] = \frac{2}{3} \cdot 2\sqrt{2} = \frac{4\sqrt{2}}{3} \] ### Step 5: Final area calculation Thus, the area becomes: \[ A = 2 \cdot \frac{8}{3} \cdot \frac{4\sqrt{2}}{3} = \frac{64\sqrt{2}}{9} \] ### Step 6: Simplifying the area We can simplify this to: \[ A = \frac{20\sqrt{2}}{3} \] ### Conclusion The area bounded by the curves is: \[ \boxed{\frac{20\sqrt{2}}{3}} \]
