To find the area between two curves y = f(x) and y = g(x) where f(x) is greater than or equal to g(x), you compute:

A.2 times the integral of f(x)dx
B.The integral of [f(x) - g(x)]dx
C.The integral of [f(x) + g(x)]dx
D.The integral of [g(x) - f(x)]dx

Explanation

Core Concept

The area between two curves is the integral of the top function minus the bottom function: A = integral of [f(x) - g(x)]dx.

Correct Answer

BThe integral of [f(x) - g(x)]dx
