Math Problem Statement
Solve using the grapg
Solution
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the graph of the function and evaluate the given definite integrals over the specified intervals. The question asks to arrange the integrals in increasing order.
Step-by-Step Analysis:
-
Graph Overview:
- The graph is of a continuous function that starts negative, increases to a positive peak, decreases, and then has a positive region again.
- Important points to note are the zeros and the behavior of the function in different intervals.
-
Intervals and Integrals:
- A:
- B:
- C:
- D:
-
Understanding the Integrals:
- (A): This integral calculates the area under the curve from to .
- From the graph, it appears is negative in this region, so this integral will yield a negative value.
- (B): This integrates from to .
- The graph shows is negative from to somewhere between 0 and 1, and positive from there to 2. The net area should be close to zero, potentially slightly positive or negative.
- (C): This integral takes into account the area from to .
- From to , the function seems to be mostly positive, so this integral should give a positive value.
- (D): This is the area under the curve from to .
- Here, is positive, so this integral will yield a positive value as well.
- (A): This integral calculates the area under the curve from to .
Determining the Order:
- Since is negative (smallest value), is around zero or slightly positive, is positive but smaller than , and is the largest, the order is:
Final Answer:
The correct order from smallest to largest is:

Tip: When analyzing the integral of a function over an interval, focus on the sign and magnitude of the function over that interval to estimate the integral value.
