Find the area bounded by the curve y = x(2-x). The x-axis, x = 0…

Find the area bounded by the curve y = x(2-x). The x-axis, x = 0 and x = 2.
  • A.
    4 sq units
  • B.
    2 sq units
  • C.
    (frac{4}{3}sqhspace{1 mm}units)
  • D.
    (frac{1}{3}sqhspace{1 mm}units)
Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation

(y = x(2-x) Rightarrow y= 2x – x^{2};
int^{2}_{0}(2x-x^{2} = (x^{2}-frac{x{3}}{3})^{2}\
solving further gives (4 – frac{1}{3} * 8) – (0) = frac{4}{3} sqhspace{1 mm}unit)
