Homework Statement
Sketch the region bounded by y = x^2 and y = 4. This region is divided into two sub regions of equal area by a line y = c. Find c.
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
I try to integrate from 0 to a point c and make it equate to from integrating c to 4 like this:
[tex]
\int_{0}^{c} [(\sqrt{y})-(-\sqrt{y})]dy = \int_{c}^{4} [(\sqrt{y})-(-\sqrt{y})]dy
[/tex]
But after I simplify the c disappears.. is this wrong?
