The area under the curve:y+=+e%5E2x between x = 2 and x = 3 is given by taking the integralintegral%28ydx%29 evaluated from x = 2 to x = 3
I don't know how to show the integral sign, so I'll use S
S%28e%5E%282x%29%29dx+=+e%5E%282x%29%2F2 from x=2 to x=3
A+=+%28e%5E%282%2A3%29%29%2F2+-+%28e%5E%282%2A2%29%29%2F2
A+=+%28e%5E6+-+e%5E4%29%2F2
A+=+384.831%2F2
A+=+174.4155
