7.3 Area and The Definite Integraland
7.4 The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus
OBJECTIVES Evaluate a definite integral. Find the area under a curve over a given
closed interval. Interpret an area below the horizontal axis. Solve applied problems involving definite
integrals.
Fundamental theorem of calculus:for a continuous function f on the
interval[a, b]
where F is any anti-derivative of f. a and b are called the lower and upper
limits of integration.
( ) ( ) ( ) ( )b b
aaf x dx F x F b F a
The notation F(b) - F(a) means to evaluate the anti-derivative at b and
subtract the anti-derivative evaluated at a. Since both F(b) and
F(a) contain the constant of integration c, they will cancel each
other out, thus eliminating c altogether.

Example: Suppose that y is the profit per mile traveled (in thousands of dollars) and x is number of miles traveled, in thousands. Find the area under y = 1/x over the interval [1, 4] and interpret the significance of this area.
1.3863 thousand dollars
The area represents a total profit of $1386.30 when the miles traveled increase from 1000 to 4000 miles.

To find area when for the values of x in the interval [a, b], find the absolute value of the definite integral.
When finding area below the x-axis from [a, b], if you just find the definite integral, you will get a negative answer. Area can’t be negative, so just take the absolute value of the definite integral.
( ) 0f x
Example: Find the area under the curve of from x = -1 to x = 1.
Hint: First graph the function to see if f(x) >0.
2( ) 8f x x
Example: Predict the sign of the integral by using what you know about area.
Consider ( x3 3x 1)dx 1

.
From the graph, it appears that there is considerably more area below the x-axis than above. Thus, we expect that the sign of the integral will be negative.
This is worked on the next slide.
