11 **Mathematical Enclosures for Farm Fields**Farmer Jones and his wife, Dr. Jones, decide to build a fence in their field to keep the sheep safe. Since Dr. Jones is a mathematician, she suggests building fences described by the equations \( y = 7x^2 \) and \( y = x^2 + 8 \). Farmer Jones thinks this would be much harder than just building an enclosure with straight sides, but he wants to please his wife. **Problem:**Given the equations of these curves, determine the area of the enclosed region.**Explanation:**1. **Equations of the Fences:** - First fence: \( y = 7x^2 \) - Second fence: \( y = x^2 + 8 \)2. **Finding Intersection Points:** To find the region enclosed by these two curves, begin by finding their points of intersection. Set the equations equal to each other: \[ 7x^2 = x^2 + 8 \]3. **Solving the Equation:** Subtract \( x^2 \) from both sides: \[ 6x^2 = 8 \] \[ x^2 = \frac{8}{6} \] \[ x^2 = \frac{4}{3} \] \[ x = \pm \sqrt{\frac{4}{3}} = \pm \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} = \pm\frac{2\sqrt{3}}{3} \]4. **Setting Up the Integral:** The area between two curves is found using integration: \[ A = \int_{a}^{b} \left[ f(x) - g(x) \right] \, dx \] Here, \( f(x) = x^2 + 8 \) and \( g(x) = 7x^2 \), with limits of integration \( a = -\frac{2\sqrt{3}}{3} \) and \( b = \frac{2\sqrt{3}}{3} \).5. **Calculating the Area:** \[ A = \int_{-\frac{2\sqrt{3}}{3}}^{\frac{2\sqrt{3}}{3}} \left[ (x
