What is the area of the region enclosed by the graphs of y=xy=\sqrt{x} and y=x4y=\frac{x}{4}?

A.1283\frac{128}{3}
B.3232
C.323\frac{32}{3}
D.643\frac{64}{3}

Explanation

Core Concept

The curves intersect at x=0x=0 and x=16x=16. The area is 016(xx4)dx=[23x3/2x28]016=128332=323\int_0^{16}(\sqrt{x}-\frac{x}{4})\,dx=[\frac{2}{3}x^{3/2}-\frac{x^2}{8}]_0^{16}=\frac{128}{3}-32=\frac{32}{3}.

Correct Answer

C323\frac{32}{3}
