Procedure
1. Press z. Select the default mode settings.
2. Press p. Set the viewing window.
3. Press o. Turn off all functions and stat plots. Enter the upper and lower functions.
Y1=300Xà(X2+625)
Y2=3cos(.1X)
4. Press y / 5 to select 5:Intersect. The graph is displayed. Select a first curve,
second curve, and guess for the intersection toward the left side of the display. The
solution is displayed, and the value of X at the intersection, which is the lower limit of
the integral, is stored in Ans and X.
