Question
The problem asks us to use the formula for the definite integral of the function \(x\) from \(a\) to \(b\):

\[
\int_a^b x \, dx = \frac{b^2}{2} - \frac{a^2}{2}
\]

where \(a < b\), to evaluate the integral:

\[
\int_2^{\sqrt{7}} x \, dx.
\]

There is a prompt to find the result of this integral and type an exact answer in simplified form.
