Explanation:
Remember that an application of integration is to find the area under a curve. In this example you are finding the area bounded between 0 and 2.
First you apply the integration rules.
Now apply the bounds of 0 and 2.
Substitute in the upper bound into the expression
Substitute in the lower bound into the expression
Subtract the lower bound result from the upper bound result
