A region S in the first quadrant is bounded above by the graph of h(x)=x, below by the x-axis, and on the right by the vertical line x=4.
(a) Express the area of S as a definite integral.
(b) Calculate the exact value of the area.
(c) Using correct units, interpret the meaning of the numerical value obtained in part (b) within the context of the xy-plane.
