    Section 5.3
    Exercise 74
    Justin Drawbert
    July 14, 2010

    In James Stewart’s Calculus: Concepts and Contexts, 4th Edition, Section 5.3, Exercise 74, we
    are given two graphs of ex for which we are told the area in labeled B is 3 times greater than the
    area labeled A. We are then asked to express b in terms of a.
    a b
    e e
    x x
    e e
    y

    B
    A

    0 a 0 b
    x x

    This can be expressed mathematically as


    Z b Z a
    ex = 3 · ex
    0 0
    We then recall (from page 356)
    Evaluation Theorem: If f is continuous on the interval [a, b] , then
    Z b
    f (x)dx = F (b) − F (a)
    a
    Where F is any antiderivative of f , that is F ′ = f
    By this we have
    Z b Z a b a
    x
    e =3· ex ⇒ ex = 3 · ex

    0 0 0 0

    ⇒ eb − e0 = 3 · ea − 3 · e0
    ⇒ eb − 1 = 3 · ea − 3
    ⇒ eb = 3 · ea − 2
    ⇒ ln(eb ) = ln(3 · ea − 2)
    ⇒ b = ln(3 · ea − 2)
