Question statement

Given the function $\color{red}{y=\simplify[!noleadingminus,unitfactor]{{A} x^2 + {B} x + {C}}}$ , determine the area under the curve from the y-axis to the point where the curve crosses the positive x-axis. The x- and y- coordinates are in [{units}]. Give your answers correct to at least 3 significant figures and include the correct units (nb: if you see 'in' or 'mm' etc. it means inches, millimetres etc. Write the units as they appear in the question).

Gap-fill

Ask the student a question, and give any hints about how they should answer this part.

Determine the points where the curve crosses the axes.

$h$ = Gap 0. {qty(C,units)}

$a$ = Gap 1. {siground(root1,4)}

Advice

To find the point where the curve crosses the y-axis, set x = 0 and solve for y.
To find the point where the curve crosses the positive x-axis, set y to zero and solve for x using the quadratic formula.
To find the area under the curve, divide the shaded area into vertical differential strips where $dA = y\, dx$ then integrate between the horizontal limits to find the area.

$\begin{align}A &= \int dA \\&= \int_0^a y\,dx \\&= \int_0^a(\simplify[!noleadingminus,unitfactor]{{A} x^2 + {B} x + {C}})\, dx\\& = \left[ \simplify[unitfactor,collectnumbers]{{A} x^3/3 + {B} x^2/3 + {C}x}\right]_0^\var{scalar(siground(root1,4))}\\&=\var{siground(area,4)}\end{align}$
