Finding Areas What is the area of the region R that is enclosed between the x-axis and the graph of f(x) = 2?x ? x2/2, for x between 1 and 4? Finding Areas What is the area of the region R that is enclosed between the x-axis and the graph of f(x) = 2?x ? x2/2, for x between 1 and 4? For n = 6 rectangles Sum of areas called S6 = f(m1)??x + f(m2)??x + f(m3)??x + f(m4)??x + f(m5)??x + f(m6)??x = 4.531250. More rectangles: Larger n As n increases, the value of Sn increases, getting closer and closer to the true are under the curve. Integral Notation We write the value of the midpoint sum as n gets very large by an integral Find Revenue from Buffalo Dinners Not Sold:Optimum price and quantity are $19.19 and 2300 0 1000 2000 3000 4000 5000 $8 $16 $24 $32 Not Sold Consumer Surplus q = 2,300 D(2,300) = $19.99 Revenue $45,977 2,300 $19.99 Demand Function D(q) = ?0.0000018?q2 ? 0.0002953?q + 30.19 $0 4014 Find Consumer Surplus for Dinners 0 1000 2000 3000 4000 5000 $8 $16 $24 $32 Not Sold Consumer Surplus q = 2,300 D(2,300) = $19.99 Revenue $45,977 2,300 $19.99 Demand Function D(q) = ?0.0000018?q2 ? 0.0002953?q + 30.19 $0 * *
