$y=ln(cosx)\\\\We\ know:\\(lnx)'=\frac{1}{x}\ and\ (cosx)'=-sinx\ and\ \{f[g(x)]\}'=f'[g(x)]\cdot g'(x)\\\\therefore:\\\\y'=\frac{1}{cosx}\cdot(-sinx)=-\frac{sinx}{cosx}=-tanx$

Find the area of a plane figure bounded by lines

natulia [17]

Answer: 4.5

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

First, find the points of intersection by solving the system.

y = x² + 2x + 4

y = x + 6

Solve by substitution:

x² + 2x + 4 = x + 6 ⇒ x² + x - 2 = 0 ⇒ (x + 2)(x - 1) = 0 ⇒ x = -2, x = 1

Now, integrate from x = -2 to x = 1

$\int\limits^1_2 {(x+6)-(x^{2}+2x+4) } \,$ <em>the bottom of the integral is -2 </em>

= $\int\limits^1_2 {x+6-x^{2}-2x-4 } \,$

= $\int\limits^1_2 {-x^{2}-x+2 } \,$

= $\frac{-x^{3}}{3} - \frac{x^{2}}{2}+2x\int\limits^1_2 {} \,$

= $(\frac{-1^{3}}{3} - \frac{1^{2}}{2}+2(1)) - (\frac{-(-2)^{3}}{3} - \frac{(-2)^{2}}{2}+2(-2))$

= $(\frac{-1}{3} - \frac{1}{2} +2) - (\frac{8}{3} -\frac{4}{2} -4)$

= $\frac{-9}{3} + \frac{3}{2} +6$

= -3 + 1.5 + 6

= 4.5
