Studdy Solution
STEP 1
1. We are given two functions: and .
2. We need to find the area bounded by these two curves from to .
3. The area is calculated as the integral of the difference between the two functions over the given interval.
STEP 2
1. Determine the points of intersection of the two curves.
2. Set up the integral to find the area between the curves.
3. Evaluate the integral to find the area.
STEP 3
Find the points of intersection by setting the two equations equal to each other:
