Unit mixed practice: areas, rates and accumulation Problem set B
Show each limit and the integral you write. Use the calculator for definite integrals, and give 3 significant figures unless told otherwise.
Each question matches the question with the same number in set A. Do the ones you got wrong there.

Skills
-
Find the area enclosed between the x-axis and the graph of \(y=-x^2 + 9x - 14\).
-
Find the area enclosed by the part of the graph of \(y=25-x^2\) for \(x>0\), the x-axis and the y-axis.
-
The diagram shows the graphs of \(y=10x-x^2\) and \(y=4x\). They meet at the origin and at the point P.
- (a) Find the coordinates of P.
- (b) Find the shaded area.
-
The function f satisfies \(f'(x)=2x^2 + 3x\) and \(f(0)=4\). Find \(\int_0^{2} f(x)\,dx\).
-
Given that \(\int f(x)\,dx=5\left(x^3 + \frac{2}{x}+c\right)\), find an expression for \(f(x)\).
-
The diagram shows the graphs of \(y=\frac{7}{x}\) and \(y=6-x\). They meet at the points P and Q.
- (a) Use your calculator to find the x-coordinates of P and Q.
- (b) Find the shaded area.
In context
-
A pump fills a tank at a rate of \(3+kt^2\) litres per minute, where t is the time in minutes after it is switched on. After 5 minutes the rate is 8 litres per minute. How much water is pumped in the first 5 minutes?
-
A fountain is switched on and, for the first 20 seconds, the rate at which water leaves it is directly proportional to the time it has been on. After 8 seconds the rate is 10 litres per second. How much water leaves the fountain in the first 20 seconds?
-
A model suggests that ice melts into a dish at a rate of \(\frac{120}{t^3}\) millilitres per minute, where t is the time in minutes after the ice was put out. When \(t=2\) there are 15 millilitres of water in the dish.
- (a) Find the amount of water in the dish 10 minutes after the ice was put out.
- (b) Use technology to estimate the amount of water that will eventually be in the dish.
- (c) Give one criticism of this model.
-
Grain is loaded into a silo at a rate of \(r=\frac{t^2}{60}\), where r is measured in tonnes per hour and t is the time in hours after loading starts. The graph is shown, shaded from \(t=0\) to \(t=36\).
- (a) Write down an integral that represents the area of the shaded region.
- (b) Find the area of the shaded region.
- (c) Interpret the meaning of the shaded area in the context of this question.
- (d) Find the number of hours it takes to load 100 tonnes of grain.

-
Find the area enclosed by the curve \(y=3x^2\), the y-axis and the line \(y=27\), for \(x\ge0\).
