The given region is bounded by the parabola y=x2−8x and the line y=−x.
To find the points of intersection, equate the two equations:
x2−8x=−x
x2−7x=0
x(x−7)=0
The points of intersection are x=0 and x=7.
In the interval [0,7], the line y=−x lies above the parabola y=x2−8x.
The required area A is given by:
A=∫07(−x−(x2−8x))dx
A=∫07(7x−x2)dx
Evaluating the integral:
A=[27x2−3x3]07
A=27(49)−3343
A=2343−3343
A=343(21−31)
A=6343
Answer: 6343
