Q.

Let and be two parabolas. If the area of the bounded region enclosed between and is six times the area of the bounded region enclosed between the line and , then is equal to :

  1. A

    8

  2. B

    15

  3. C

    12

  4. D

    6

Solution

Area between and : Intersections at . By symmetry,

.

Area between and : Rewriting as . Using the standard result that the area between the parabola and the chord is , with so , and slope :

. Hmm — let's compute directly instead. Intersections: or .

.

Condition: .
