Question
Find the area between the graph of the given function and the $x$ -axis over the given interval, if possible.$$f(x)=\frac{3}{(x-1)^{3}}, \text { for } (-\infty, 0]$$
Step 1
Since we are looking for the area between the function and the x-axis from $-\infty$ to $0$, we set up the integral as follows: $$\int_{-\infty}^{0} \frac{3}{(x-1)^3} dx$$ Show more…
