As we have learned

NEWTON LEIBNITZ THEOREM -

\frac {d}{dt}\left ( \int_{f(t)}^{\phi (t))}F(x)dx \right )=F(\phi(t))\phi^{'}(t)-F(f(t))f^{'}(t)

-

 

 \frac{dy}{dx } = |x |  

We have , dy/dx = 2 

So,  x = \pm 2

For x = 2 

y = \int_{0}^{2} |t|dt = 1/2 \times 2\times 2 = 2

 

So , (y-2) = 2 (x-2)

 \Rightarrow 2x-y -2 = 0

x- intercept = 1 

Similarly for x = -2 

x intercept = -1
