**5. Understanding the Function \( A(x) \)**
Suppose that
\[
A(x) = \int_{\alpha(x)}^{B(x)} f(u) \, du.
\]
Utilize the concept of sweeping to determine
\[
\frac{d}{dx} \int_{\alpha(x)}^{B(x)} f(u) \, du.
\]
In this context, you may use \( x \) as the time variable, with \( \alpha(x) \) and \( B(x) \) representing the respective position functions of the moving left and right vertical segments.
**Graphical Explanation:**
The accompanying figure illustrates the application of the integral:
- The curve labeled \( f \) represents the function being integrated.
- The vertical lines at \( \alpha(x) \) and \( B(x) \) signify the dynamic limits of the integral, effectively ‘sweeping’ across the area under the curve as \( x \) changes.
- As \( \alpha(x) \) and \( B(x) \) shift, the area under the curve \( f \) between these points changes, corresponding to variations in \( A(x) \).
This visual demonstrates how changes in \( x \) affect the computed integral by altering the bounds from \( \alpha(x) \) to \( B(x) \).

This exploration will aid in grasping the calculus concept of integrating functions with variable limits and the resulting impact on the derivative of such an integral.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F61166d61-38cb-42ed-a6be-02009a56cf7f%2F7218333f-e245-4b43-9919-2be8754bb6bd%2Fw33imn2_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
