Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 9

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation


\(\begin{aligned} \text { Required area } & =\int_0^9 \sqrt{x} \mathrm{~d} x-\int_3^9\left(\frac{x-3}{2}\right) \mathrm{d} x \\ & =\left[\frac{2 x^{3 / 2}}{3}\right]_0^9-\frac{1}{2}\left[\frac{x^2}{2}-3 x\right]_3^9 \\ & =\frac{2}{3}(27-0)-\frac{1}{2}(36-18) \\ & =9 \text { sq.units }\end{aligned}\)
