Absolute-value sum: split at 2 and 3
Absolute-value sum: split at 2 and 3

💡 Concept Hints

  1. Identify the domain and the inner and outer functions, or the relevant one-sided limits.
  2. Apply the appropriate differentiation or limit rule, keep all chain factors, and check exceptional points.

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: 19/2.
  1. Split at x=2 and x=3. On [1,2], [2,3], [3,4] the integrand is respectively 4−x, x, 3x−6.
  2. The three integrals are 5/2,5/2,9/2; their sum is 19/2.
