Answer

$3+ \frac{9\pi}{4}$

Work Step by Step

$\int_{-3}^{0} (1+\sqrt{9-x^2})~dx = \int_{-3}^{0} 1~dx+\int_{-3}^{0} \sqrt{9-x^2}~dx$ On the interval $-3 \leq x \leq 0$, the graph of $f(x) = 1$ forms a rectangle above the x-axis. We can find the area of this rectangle: $A = (0-(-3))(1) = 3$ On the interval $-3 \leq x \leq 0$, the graph of $\sqrt{9-x^2}$ forms a quarter of a circle with radius=3 above the x-axis. We can find the area: $A = \frac{\pi~r^2}{4} = \frac{9\pi}{4}$ Therefore: $\int_{-3}^{0} (1+\sqrt{9-x^2})~dx = 3+ \frac{9\pi}{4}$
