Problem

Consider the region SS enclosed by the parabola y2=4xy^{2}=4x and the line y=2x−4y=2x-4. (a) Rewrite each curve in the form x=f(y)x=f(y). (b) Find the exact yy-coordinates of all points where the two curves intersect. (c) Set up—but do not evaluate—a single definite integral with respect to yy whose value equals the area of SS. Clearly indicate the integrand and the limits of integration. (d) Evaluate the integral from part (c) to obtain the exact area of SS.
