Question
Anna is to create a garden plot to grow lettuce (area
A) for her turtles, as well as flowers (area B). She
draws the garden land in a coordinate system
where 1a.e= 1m². She immediately sees that the
shape corresponds to the area under the curve y=9 -
x^2. Anna wants the area for the flowers to be twice
as large as the area for the salad. Hampus says
that if she draws a line at y= 5, surface B will be
twice as large = as surface A, Anna is more
doubtful. Determine if Hampus is right by
calculating the areas A and B.
