A straight line y=3x+cy=3x+c and the parabola y=x2y=x^{2} bound a region between x=0x=0 and x=3x=3. a. (i) State the inequality that cc must satisfy so that the line remains above the parabola for every xx in [0,3][0,3]. b. (ii) Derive an expression, in terms of cc, for the area of the region enclosed by the two curves on [0,3][0,3]. c. (iii) Given that this area equals 2727 square units, determine the value of cc.
