# Calculus 2

Sketch the region in the first quadrant enclosed by y=7/x, y=2x, and y=x/2. Decide whether to integrate with respect to x or y. Then find the area of the region.

1. It doesn't really matter which variable is used, since the boundary changes in either direction.

Cleverly enough, the hyperbola intersects the two lines at (√(7/2),√14) and (√14,√(7/2).

So,

a = ∫[0,√(7/2)] (2x)-(x/2) dx
+ ∫[√(7/2),√14] (7/x)-(x/2) dx

or, along y,

a = ∫[0,√(7/2)] (2y)-(y/2) dy
+ ∫[0,√(7/2)] (7/y)-(y/2) dy
