Written solution

Area of the region {(x,y)∈R²: y≥√|x+3|, 5y≤ x+9≤ 15} is equal to

y≥∣x+3∣y \ge \sqrt{|x+3|}

5y≤x+9≤155y \le x+9 \le 15

y≤x+95,x≤6y \le \dfrac{x+9}{5},\qquad x \le 6

area between y=∣x+3∣ and y=x+95\text{area between } y=\sqrt{|x+3|} \text{ and } y=\dfrac{x+9}{5}

1. intersections of ∣x+3∣ and x+951.\ \text{intersections of } \sqrt{|x+3|} \text{ and } \dfrac{x+9}{5}

2. the interval where the line is above2.\ \text{the interval where the line is above}

3. integrate and evaluate3.\ \text{integrate and evaluate}

lower y=∣x+3∣,upper y=x+95\text{lower } y=\sqrt{|x+3|},\quad \text{upper } y=\dfrac{x+9}{5}

region needs ∣x+3∣≤x+95\text{region needs } \sqrt{|x+3|}\le\dfrac{x+9}{5}

∣x+3∣=x+95,u=x+3\sqrt{|x+3|} = \dfrac{x+9}{5},\quad u=x+3

25∣u∣=(u+6)225|u| = (u+6)^2

u≥0: u2−13u+36=0⇒u=4, 9u\ge0:\ u^2-13u+36=0 \Rightarrow u=4,\ 9

u<0: u2+37u+36=0⇒u=−1 (u>−6)u<0:\ u^2+37u+36=0 \Rightarrow u=-1\ (u>-6)

⇒x=−4, 1, 6\Rightarrow x=-4,\ 1,\ 6

region only where ∣u∣≤u+65\text{region only where } \sqrt{|u|}\le\dfrac{u+6}{5}

u∈[−1,4]⇒x∈[−4,1]u\in[-1,4] \Rightarrow x\in[-4,1]

A=∫−41[x+95−∣x+3∣]dxA = \int_{-4}^{1}\left[\dfrac{x+9}{5}-\sqrt{|x+3|}\right]dx

=∫−14[u+65−∣u∣]du= \int_{-1}^{4}\left[\dfrac{u+6}{5}-\sqrt{|u|}\right]du

=∫−10[u+65−−u]du+∫04[u+65−u]du= \int_{-1}^{0}\left[\dfrac{u+6}{5}-\sqrt{-u}\right]du + \int_{0}^{4}\left[\dfrac{u+6}{5}-\sqrt{u}\right]du

∫−14u+65 du=152,∫−14∣u∣ du=6\int_{-1}^{4}\dfrac{u+6}{5}\,du = \dfrac{15}{2},\qquad \int_{-1}^{4}\sqrt{|u|}\,du = 6

A=152−6=32A = \dfrac{15}{2}-6 = \dfrac{3}{2}

Area=32\text{Area} = \dfrac{3}{2}
