I have two curves plotted on the same plot. To the left of a given domain value, I want to fill between curve 1 and the x-axis; to right of that value, I want to fill between the two curves.

  • $\begingroup$ Thank you for the link, but that could be applied only there is an intersection in between. $\endgroup$ Commented Nov 18, 2019 at 17:09
  • $\begingroup$ @Nina To help you, people will need the data or the analytical expressions that generated those curves. We can't help you otherwise. $\endgroup$ Commented Nov 18, 2019 at 17:34

Here's an adaptation of m_goldberg's answer that uses a single plot for his example:

Plot[ { c2[x], ConditionalExpression[c1[x], x<.7], ConditionalExpression[c1[x], x>.7] }, {x, 0,1}, PlotStyle->{Red, Blue, Blue}, Filling->{2->{Axis, LightBlue}, 1->{{3}, LightBlue}} ]

Here is one way to do what you are asking for.

Functions and given point

c2[x_] := x^(1/2) c1[x_] := x^3 x0 = .7; 

Now we make three plots ...

p1 = Plot[{c1[x], c2[x]}, {x, 0, 1}, Epilog -> {Blue, Dashed, Line[{{x0, 0}, {x0, 1}}]}] 

p1

p2 = Plot[c1[x], {x, 0, x0}, Filling -> Bottom] 

p2

p3 = Plot[{c1[x], c2[x]}, {x, x0, 1}, Filling -> {1 -> {2}}] 

p3

... and combine them with Show.

Show[p1, p2, p3] 

all
