Expert Solution
Step 1

The figure given in the problem represents the graph of the function y=f(x).

The region under the curve of the graph represents the values of a function between different integral.

The region about the x-axis is a positive region and the region below the x-axis is a negative region.

For 0afxdx,

From the graph, the value of the function in between 0 and a is 12.

So,

0afxdx=12

Thus, the value of the definite integral 0afxdx is 12.

For 0bfxdx,

From the graph, the value of the function in between 0 and a is 12 and between a and b is 6. As the region between a and b is below x-axis it is the negative region.

So, the integral will be the algebraic sum of values of both regions.

The value of integral is,

0bfxdx=12-6=6

Thus, the value of the definite integral 0bfxdx is 6.

Step 2

For 0cfxdx,

From the graph, the value of the function in between 0 and a is 12 (positive), between a and b is 6 (negative), and between b and c is 11 (positive).

So, the integral will be the algebraic sum of values of each region between 0 to c.

The value of integral is,

0cfxdx=12-6+11=6+11=17

Thus, the value of the definite integral 0cfxdx is 17.
