The area of the region bounded by the line \(y=x+1\) and the lines \(x=3\) and \(x=5\) is

  1. A \(\frac{7}{2}\) sq units
  2. B \(\frac{11}{2}\) sq units
  3. C 7 sq units

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 10 sq units

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation


\(\therefore\) Required area, \(A=\int_3^5(x+1) d x\)
\(\begin{aligned} & =\left[\frac{x^2}{2}+x\right]_3^5=\left[\frac{25}{2}+5-\frac{9}{2}-3\right] \\ & =\left[\frac{25+10-9-6}{2}\right]=\frac{20}{2} \\ & =10 \text { sq units }\end{aligned}\)
