Using integration, find the area of the region bounded by the line 2y = 5x + 7, x-axis and the lines x = 2 and x = 8.
Using integration, find the area of the region bounded by the line 2y = 5x + 7, x-axis and the lines x = 2 and x = 8.

Given,

\[2y~=\text{ }5x~+\text{ }7,~x-axis,~x~=\text{ }2\text{ }and~x~=\text{ }8\]

graphg for:

\[2y~=\text{ }5x~+\text{ }7\text{ }\Rightarrow \text{ }y\text{ }=\text{ }\left( 5x\text{ }+\text{ }7 \right)/2\] is

x 1 -1
y 6 1
