Problem

For the region bounded by the curves

x = y^{2}

and

x = y + 2

between

y = 0

and

y = 2

, a student must decide whether to integrate with respect to

x

or with respect to

y

. Which orientation avoids having to solve either curve for the other variable? a) Both orientations require solving for the other variable. b) Integrate with respect to

x

only. c) Integrate with respect to

y

only. d) Neither orientation can be used because the region is not closed.
