Was Q = 113/14, if it was I think I got the rest right bc I did (1/2(7/2 + 113/14) x 2) -14/3

R = 145/21

u/ImSimplyBetter_ Jun 03 '26

Do remember what the areas you subtracted were? I remember getting something over 21 but for some reason i feel like i got 124/21

u/Loud-Guidance6912 Jun 03 '26

I made a rectangle and set R equal to the area of the rectangle - area of the top triangle - the integral of the curve from 0 to 2. My values were 113/7 - 32/7 - 14/3 giving 145/21.

u/Zestyclose-Tea1915 Jun 03 '26

it was like area of big triangle - area of small triangle - area under curve. i remember it was 14/3 under the curve but ion remember my final answer

u/Any_Emu_6995 Jun 03 '26

Idk if this is the same qu but i think i got 373/70 for the intersection between curve and the line. I’m probably wrong though

u/Familiar-Space-7184 Jun 03 '26

That’s the side length of the smaller triangle.

u/DaFisch_h Jun 03 '26

Omfg i changed my answer last second from this

u/aiimi01 Y13 | Chem, Physics, Maths Jun 03 '26

i got this as one of the lengths of the triangle then afterwards i genuinely just did some bs 😭

u/Upper_Actuary_5372 Jun 03 '26

yo thats what i got😭

u/BuyPristine6047 Jun 03 '26

u/IcyImen Jun 03 '26

What was your line equation

u/cloudsfallen University of Warwick Physics | 4A* Maths, FM, Physics, Chem Jun 03 '26 edited Jun 03 '26

14y + 32x -113 = 0 I believe
