Homework Statement
x + y^2 = 42, x + y = 0
Find the area of the region enclosed.
Homework Equations
Integral of the top to the bottom.
The Attempt at a Solution
At first I tried to use S sqrt(42-x)+x dx and i get -2/3 (42 - x) ^ (3/2) - 1/2 x^2
However when I set them equal to one another 42-x=x^2 and get the root values -6 and 7. Plugging it in doesn't get me the right answer...what am I doing wrong?
