(a): Given, y = 4x − x2
3y = (x − 4)2 From (i), 3y = 3(4x − x2) = 12x − 3x2 From (ii), (x − 4)2 = 12x − 3x2 ⇒ x2 + 16 − 8x = 12x − 3x2 ⇒ x2 − 5x + 4 = 0 ⇒ (x − 1)(x − 4) = 0 ⇒ x = 1, 4 Points of intersection are (1, 3) and (4, 0). Required area = ∫14 [ (4x − x2) − 3(x−4)2 ] dx = [ 2x2 − 3x3 − 31 3(x−4)3 ]14 = [ (32 − 364 − 31(0)) − (2 − 31 − 31(3−27)) ] = 30 − 364 + 31 − 3 = 27 − 21 = 6 sq. units
