How does our understanding of integration and the Fundamental Theorem of
Calculus allow us to compare income inequality?
The Gini index is a statistical measure of income distribution. It ranges from 0 (or 0%) for perfect equality to 1
(or 100%) for perfect inequality. Source:

The Gini index is defined to be two times the area between
the line of perfect equality (y = x) and the Lorenz curve. (The
Lorenz curve shows the percentage of income held by each
percentile of the country's population. As an example, the
Lorenz curve would plot a point at (50, 20) if the bottom 50%
of the population held 20% of the country's income.)

We are going to compare the income distribution of Ukraine with that of Poland, a country in the EU which is
geographically close to Ukraine.
1. Above is a plot of the line of equality and the Lorenz curve for Ukraine in 2020. Shade the area we need to
find first so that we can calculate the Gini index. Then, write an expression for THIS AREA that includes a
definite integral.
2. Use the integral expression you wrote in #1 and the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus to find the Gini
index for Ukraine in the year 2020. Show the substitutions necessary, but use fnint to do the calculation.
