Area between more than 2 curves?

How would I find the area between y = 1/x, y = x, y = .25x, and x >0 (i.e. the y axis)?

Help would be greatly appreciated!

Divide the region into two parts: the part between x=1 and x=2, and the part between x=0 and x=1. Then find each part and add them up. The first for example is ∫ 1/x dx - ∫ 0.25x dx evaluated from 1 to 2
