A) See the attached graph. The purple area appears to be what you want to find.
b) Integrating with respect to x seems much easier. If one were to integrate over y, there would need to be two regions of integration: [1, e^2] and [e^2, e^4].
c)
She had 2.55 pounds left.
Maybe try 4(2-y)=2y for an equation
Area of figure is the total number of 1 square unit in the figure. For a rectangle, it is calculated from the product of its length and its width. For this case, we are given:
Width = x
Length = 7x
Area = x(7x) = 7x^2
The coefficient 7 would mean that the length is 7 times longer than the width, x.
