Exercise · ZW-DOUBLE-INTEGRAL-OVER-GENERAL-REGION-008 · ★★☆ Intermediate

Find the area of \(D=\{1\le x\le e,\ 0\le y\le\ln x\}\).

Choose one option.

Show answer
  • C. \(1\)

Explanation

The area is \(\int_1^e\ln x\,dx=\left[x\ln x-x\right]_1^e=0-(-1)=1\).

Review the concept: Double integral over a general region

The double integral of \(f\) with respect to the area \(A\) over a region \(D=\{a\le x\le b,\ g_1(x)\le y\le g_2(x)\}\) is an iterated integral whose inner limits depend on the outer variable.

\[\iint_D f\,dA=\int_a^b\!\int_{g_1(x)}^{g_2(x)} f(x,y)\,dy\,dx\]
