Area under the curveHard
Question
If y = f(x) makes +ve intercept of 2 and 0 unit on x and y axes and encloses an area of 3/4 square unit with the axes then
xf′(x) dx is
xf′(x) dx isOptions
A.3/2
B.1
C.5/4
D.-3/4
Solution
We have
f(x) dx =
; Now,
xf′(x)dx = x
f′(x)dx -
f(x) dx
= [x f(x)]02 -
= 2f(2)-
= 0 -
(∵f(2) = 0) = - 
f(x) dx =
; Now,
xf′(x)dx = x
f′(x)dx -
f(x) dx= [x f(x)]02 -
= 2f(2)-
= 0 -
(∵f(2) = 0) = -
