Answer

$\int_C (2x-y)dx+(x+3y)dy = \frac{47}{2}$

Work Step by Step

The path C has two line segments: $C_1:$ line segment from (0,0) to (0,-3). Here, $x=0,dx =0$ $C_2:$ line segment from (0,-3) to (2,-3). Here, $y=-3,dx =0$ $\therefore \int_C (2x-y)dx+(x+3y)dy\\ =\int_{C_1} (2x-y)dx+(x+3y)dy+\int_{C_2} (2x-y)dx+(x+3y)dy\\ = \int_{y=0}^{-3}3ydy + \int_{x=0}^2(2x+3) dx\\ =[\frac{3y^2}{2}]_0^{-3}+[x^2+3x]_0^2\\ =\frac{47}{2}$
