Rewrite the boundary lines <em>y</em> = -1 - <em>x</em> and <em>y</em> = <em>x</em> - 1 as functions of <em>y </em>:

<em>y</em> = -1 - <em>x</em>  ==>  <em>x</em> = -1 - <em>y</em>

<em>y</em> = <em>x</em> - 1  ==>  <em>x</em> = 1 + <em>y</em>

So if we let <em>x</em> range between these two lines, we need to let <em>y</em> vary between the point where these lines intersect, and the line <em>y</em> = 1.

This means the area is given by the integral,

\displaystyle\iint_T\mathrm dA=\int_{-1}^1\int_{-1-y}^{1+y}\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy

The integral with respect to <em>x</em> is trivial:

\displaystyle\int_{-1}^1\int_{-1-y}^{1+y}\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy=\int_{-1}^1x\bigg|_{-1-y}^{1+y}\,\mathrm dy=\int_{-1}^1(1+y)-(-1-y)\,\mathrm dy=2\int_{-1}^1(1+y)\,\mathrm dy

For the remaining integral, integrate term-by-term to get

\displaystyle2\int_{-1}^1(1+y)\,\mathrm dy=2\left(y+\frac{y^2}2\right)\bigg|_{-1}^1=2\left(1+\frac12\right)-2\left(-1+\frac12\right)=\boxed{4}

Alternatively, the triangle can be said to have a base of length 4 (the distance from (-2, 1) to (2, 1)) and a height of length 2 (the distance from the line <em>y</em> = 1 and (0, -1)), so its area is 1/2*4*2 = 4.

If C = x2 + 8x + 3 and B = x – 8, find an expression that equals 3C + B in<br> standard form.
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer: 3x^2 + 25x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

3C + B

=> 3(x^2 + 8x + 3) + (x - 8)

=> 3x^2 + 24x + 9 + x - 8

=> 3x^2 + 25x + 1
