How do I correctly find the area bounded by x=-3, y=-x^2-2x, and y=x^2-4?
Ok, I end up with Area=2(-2^3/3)-2^2-4(-2)-(2(-3^3/3)+(-3)^2-4(-3) and I end with -5/3. I know the area cannot be negative. I have a feeling the upper bound is wrong or -x^2-2x should be the top curve. But my professor set it up exactly like this, and I just can't seem to solve it.- Danny222444

How do I correctly find the area bounded by x=-3, y=-x^2-2x, and y=x^2-4?
Homework Statement FInd the area bounded by x=-3, y=-x^2-2x, and y=x^2-4. (Hint: Graph the picture) 2. The attempt at a solution My professor did set up the problem in class, but its throwing me off. He set it up as the lower bound -3 to 2, with the function (2x^2+2x-4)dx. I tried solving this...- Danny222444
