Q.

Let f(x)=max{x2,(1-x)2,2x(1-x)} where 0≤x≤1, if the Area of the region bounded by the curves y=f(x), x-axis, x=0 and x=1 is pq; (where p,q are coprime numbers) then p+q=____.

1 30  
2 40  
3 44  
4 72  

Ans.

(3)

The required Area A=∫01f(x) dx

=∫01/3(1-x)2 dx+∫1/32/32x(1-x) dx+∫2/31x2 dx

=[-13(1-x)3]01/3+[x2-2x33]1/32/3+[x33]231
