Question

find the area under the curve $y = \frac{6}{x}$ over the interval $1, 3$

Explanation:

Step1: Set up the integral

The area under \( y = \frac{6}{x} \) from [1,3] is \( \int_{1}^{3} \frac{6}{x} dx \)

Step2: Compute the integral

Antiderivative of \( \frac{6}{x} \) is \( 6\ln|x| \). Evaluate from 1 to 3:
\( 6\ln(3) - 6\ln(1) = 6\ln(3) - 0 = 6\ln(3) \)

Answer:

\( 6\ln 3 \)
