Find the area bounded by the curve y x 2-x The ... - JAMB Mathematics 1999 Question

Find the area bounded by the curve y = x(2-x). The x-axis, x = 0 and x = 2.
A
4 sq units
B
2 sq units
C
\(\frac{4}{3}sq\hspace{1 mm}units\)
D
\(\frac{1}{3}sq\hspace{1 mm}units\)
correct option: c

(y = x(2-x) \Rightarrow y= 2x - x^{2};

\int^{2}_{0}(2x-x^{2} = (x^{2}-\frac{x{3}}{3})^{2}\

solving further gives (4 - \frac{1}{3} * 8) - (0) = \frac{4}{3} sq\hspace{1 mm}unit)
