question 2:

The Attempt at a Solution



So for part a) I tried to plot my domain of integration and ended up concluding it was an area bounded by y=0, y=4-x^2, and x=1. Is this okay?

In not too sure about part b) I'm just going off the graph here and so if that's wrong this will be wrong. Here is what i did I changed x domain from 1->(4-x^2) to 1->2 and I changed y domain from 0->3 to 0->4-x^2.

Is this correct?

Thanks!

how could we integrate when the upper bound of the first integral is a polynomial x=4-x^2? Maybe I am misunderstanding something. Would it not have to be either a constant or a function of y?
 
The upper limit on the inner integral is surely a typo and probably is supposed to be x = 4 - y2.
 
I sure hope so. Thank you.
