Area bound by two curves (need answer with working)

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 11-10-17] [Hit: ]
-Let me try my way...(or 4.......
I have to find the area between the two curves.y = x^2 and y= x+2 with a lower region of -1 and upper region of 2 ...i know it must be the intergral of the x+2 - intergral of x^2 ...on the calculator it says the area under curve y=x+2 is 7.5 units..and under the x^2 its 3 units....but according to my calculations which i am pretty sure are correct..i end up with a negative when i minus these two which is incorrect so can someone show me the working???

Let me try my way...

∫-1 -> 2 (x + 2 - x^2) dx

= 1/2 x^2 + 2x - 1/3 x^3 + c | -1 -> 2

= 2 + 4 - 8/3 - (1/2 -2 + 1/3)

= 2 + 4 - 8/3 - 1/2 + 2 - 1/3

= 8 - 9/3 -1/2

= 4 1/2 (unit^2)

(or 4.5 unit^2)
