Answer: The correct option is second, i.e. ,"2 times the integral from 0 to 1 of the quantity x cubed minus 3 times x squared plus 2 times x, dx".

Explanation:

The given equation is,

y=x^3-3x^2+2x

It can be written as,

f(x)=x^3-3x^2+2x

Find the zeros of the equation. Equation the function equal to 0.

0=x^3-3x^2+2x

x(x^2-3x+2)=0

x(x^2-2x-x+2)=0

x(x-2)(x-1)=0

So, the three zeros are 0, 1 and 2.

The graph of the equation is shown below.

From the given graph it is noticed that the enclosed by the curve and x- axis is lies between 0 to 2, but the area from 0 to 1 lies above the x-axis and area from 1 to 2 lies below the x-axis. So the function will be negative from 1 to 2.

The area enclosed by curve and x-axis is,

A=\int_{0}^{1}f(x)dx+\int_{1}^{2}[-f(x)]dx

A=\int_{0}^{1}f(x)dx-\int_{1}^{2}f(x)dx

From the graph it is noticed that the area from 0 to 1 is symmetric or same as area from 1 to 2. So the total area is the twice of area from 0 to 1.

A=2\int_{0}^{1}f(x)dx

A=2\int_{0}^{1}[x^3-3x^2+2x]dx

Therefore, The correct option is "2 times the integral from 0 to 1 of the quantity x cubed minus 3 times x squared plus 2 times x, dx".

zzz [600]
The answer is B. His budget is $250 so it has to be less than or equal to. $60 a crew member (x = the crew members) and $45 to use the forklift, so $60x + $45 is less than or equal to $250
