Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\frac{1}{2}\) sq.units

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation


\(\begin{aligned} & \text { Required area }=\int_0^1(3 \sqrt{x}-3 x) d x \\ & =3\left[\frac{2}{3} x^{3 / 2}-\frac{x^2}{2}\right]_0^1 \\ & =3\left(\frac{2}{3}-\frac{1}{2}\right) \\ & =3 \times \frac{1}{6}=\frac{1}{2}\end{aligned}\)
