Area of bounded Regions
Question

 A curve y=f(x) which passes through (4,0) satisfies the differential equation 

xdy+2ydx=x(x3)dx . The area bounded by y=f(x) and line y=x (in square unit) is 

Difficult
Solution

xdy+2ydx=x(x3)dxx2dy+2xydx=x33x2dxdx2y=x33x2dxyx2=x44x3+c

Curve passes through the point (4,0). 

c=0

 Therefore, curve is y=x24x and point of intersection of y=x and this curve is x=x24x   8x-x2=0  x=0, x=8

 Required area =08xx24xdx=x2x31208=6423×64=643
