Identifying the Three Curves
Given curves:
1. C1:y=3x
2. C2:y=227−3x
3. C3:y=3x−xx
We need to find the area A enclosed by these three curves.
Intersection of C1 and C2
To find C1∩C2:
3x=227−3x
6x=27−3x⇒9x=27
x=3
Substituting x=3 in y=3x, we get y=9.
Intersection Point:(3,9)
Intersection of C1 and C3
To find C1∩C3:
3x=3x−xx
xx=0⇒x=0
Substituting x=0 in y=3x, we get y=0.
Intersection Point:(0,0)
Intersection of C2 and C3
To find C2∩C3:
227−3x=3x−xx
27−3x=6x−2xx
2xx−9x+27=0
Let x=t⇒2t3−9t2+27=0
By inspection, t=3 is a root.
So, x=3⇒x=9. At x=9,y=0.
Intersection Point:(9,0)
Setting up the Area Integral
The region is bounded above by C1 for x∈[0,3] and by C2 for x∈[3,9].
The lower boundary is C3 for x∈[0,9].
Total Area A=A1+A2
A=∫03(C1−C3)dx+∫39(C2−C3)dx
A=∫03(3x−(3x−xx))dx+∫39(227−3x−(3x−xx))dx
Simplifying the Integrals
Simplifying the terms inside the integrals:
For A1: 3x−(3x−xx)=xx=x3/2
For A2: 227−3x−3x+xx=227−29x+x3/2
A=∫03x3/2dx+∫39(227−29x+x3/2)dx
Evaluating the First Integral
First Integral (A1):
A1=∫03x3/2dx=[52x5/2]03
A1=52(35/2)−0
35/2=32⋅31/2=93
A1=5183
Evaluating the Second Integral
Second Integral (A2):
A2=[227x−49x2+52x5/2]39
Upper limit (x=9): 2243−4729+5486=−4243+5486
Lower limit (x=3): 281−481+5183=481+5183
A2=(−4243+5486)−(481+5183)
Final Calculation for Area A
Combining A1 and A2:
A=5183+(−4243+5486)−(481+5183)
Notice that 5183 cancels out!
A=5486−4243−481
A=5486−4324=5486−81
A=5486−405=581
The Final Answer
We found the area A=581.
The question asks for the value of 10A.
10A=10×581
10A=2×81=162
Final Answer:162

Mapping the Terrain
Before we can calculate the area, we must understand the shape of the region defined by the three curves:
C1:y=3xC2:y=227−3xC3:y=3x−xx
To find the corners of this region, we calculate the intersection points. First, for C1 and C2:
3x=227−3x⇒6x=27−3x⇒9x=27⇒x=3
Plugging x=3 into y=3x, we find the first corner at (3,9).
Next, for C1 and C3:
3x=3x−xx⇒xx=0⇒x=0
This gives us the second corner at (0,0).
Finally, for C2 and C3:
227−3x=3x−xx⇒2xx−9x+27=0
Substituting t=x, we solve 2t3−9t2+27=0. Testing values, we find t=3 is a root, so x=3, which means x=9. Our final corner is (9,0).
The Strategy of Splitting
With vertices at (0,0), (3,9), and (9,0), we observe that the upper boundary changes at x=3. From x=0 to x=3, the upper curve is C1, while from x=3 to x=9, the upper curve is C2. The lower boundary remains C3 throughout.
We must split the total area A into two distinct integrals:
A=∫03(C1−C3)dx+∫39(C2−C3)dx
The Dance of Integration
First, we simplify the integrands. For the first interval:
C1−C3=3x−(3x−xx)=x3/2
For the second interval:
C2−C3=227−3x−(3x−xx)=227−29x+x3/2
Now, we perform the integration for the first part:
∫03x3/2dx=[52x5/2]03=52(35/2)=5183
For the second part, we integrate term by term:
∫39(227−29x+x3/2)dx=[227x−49x2+52x5/2]39
Final Calculation
Evaluating the second integral at the boundaries:
Upper limit (x=9): 2243−4729+5486
Lower limit (x=3): 281−481+5183
When we combine the two areas, the 5183 terms cancel out. We are left with:
