I hope you guys can help. I feel like I know how to do this, but I keep getting the same answer no matter what I do, which is wrong.
Sketch the regions enclosed by the given curves.
y=√x, y=1/2x, x=25
Find its area.
The attempt at a solution
∫4,25 ((1/2x)-(√x))dx
[(1/4x2)-(2/3x3/2)] integrated at 4 and 25
Basically I solve for 25, solve for 4, and subtract them. I end up with 297/4 as my answer everytime. What am I doing wrong?
