Unit 8: Applications of Integration
Calculus AB · Unit 8 · Paper 3

Applications of Integration unit test

A test on this unit alone, marked as a percentage and a letter grade — for the test your class is actually sitting, rather than for May. Answer everything, then submit once: seeing the answer to question 3 before attempting question 4 makes the final percentage meaningless.

Each paper is built from this unit’s 39 terms and is the same for everyone, so a teacher can assign “Unit 8, Paper 3” and every student sits the identical test. Multiple choice is marked objectively; the written sections you mark yourself against the model answer and rubric.

CALCULATOR PERMITTED. The shaded region R is bounded by the graphs of the functions f and g, where f(x) = x² − 2x and g(x) = x + sin(πx). The graphs intersect at x = 0 and x = 3, with g(x) ≥ f(x) on [0, 3], and R is the region between them. (Your calculator should be in radian mode.)

A. Find the area of R. Show the setup for your calculations.

B. Region R is the base of a solid. For this solid, at each x the cross section perpendicular to the x-axis is a rectangle with height x and base in region R. Find the volume of the solid. Show the setup for your calculations.

C. Write, but do not evaluate, an integral expression for the volume of the solid generated when the region R is rotated about the horizontal line y = −2.

D. It can be shown that g′(x) = 1 + π·cos(πx). Find the value of x, for 0 < x < 1, at which the line tangent to the graph of f is parallel to the line tangent to the graph of g.
