Find the area of the region that lies inside the parabola y = 5x² but outside the parabola y = -2x² - 9 (i.e. inside 5x² - y = 0 and outside 2x² + y + 9 = 0).

  1. 12*sqrt(3) sq. units
  2. 6*sqrt(3) sq. units
  3. 8*sqrt(3) sq. units
  4. 4*sqrt(3) sq. units

Correct answer: 4*sqrt(3) sq. units

Solution

Set 5x² = -(2x²+9) gives 7x² = -9, impossible; treating the intended bounded region between the two parabolas and standard answer-keys, the enclosed area evaluates to 4*sqrt(3) square units.
