Find using integration the area of {(x,y): y²≤2x and y≥x−4}.
Computed region for la 4
Computed region for la 4

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: \(18\) square units
  1. The inequalities give y²/2≤x≤y+4. Intersections satisfy y²/2=y+4, hence y=−2,4, at (2,−2),(8,4).
  2. Use right minus left strip widths: \(- \frac{y^{2}}{2} + y + 4\) for y∈\(\left[-2, 4\right]\).
  3. Hence A=\(\int_{-2}^{4}(- \frac{y^{2}}{2} + y + 4)\,dy\).
  4. Primitive \(- \frac{y^{3}}{6} + \frac{y^{2}}{2} + 4 y\), endpoint difference \(18\).
  5. Therefore the area is \(18\) square units.
