  10. Consider the region that is bounded on the left by \(\displaystyle x = 1\), bounded on the right by \(\displaystyle x = 4\), bounded above by \(\displaystyle f(x) = x^2\), and bounded below by \(\displaystyle g(x) = -x\).

  12. Two small vehicles are placed on opposite sides of a straight track facing each other. The track is 100 meters long. An experiment is conducted in which the cars move toward each other with constant velocities until they crash into one another. The cost of fuel for the first car is four times the square of the distance it moves. The cost of fuel for the second car is two times the square of the distance it moves. The experimenters want to minimize the fuel costs. How far should the first car travel? Justify that your answer is a minimum.
