The area (is sq. units) bounded by the curves $x=y^2$ and $x=3-2 y^2$ is
- 8
- $\frac{8}{3}$
- 4
- 6
Solution
Solving for $y, y^2=3-2 y^2 \Rightarrow y= \pm 1$

$\begin{aligned} & \text { Required Area } \\ & =2\left(\int_0^1 \sqrt{x} d x+\int_1^3 \sqrt{\frac{3-x}{2}} d x\right) \\ & =\left[\frac{4}{3} x^{3 / 2}\right]_0^1-\frac{2 \sqrt{2}}{3}\left[(3-x)^{3 / 2}\right]_1^3 \\ & = \\ & \frac{4}{3}-\left(0-\frac{2 \sqrt{2}}{3} 2^{3 / 2}\right)=\left(\frac{4}{3}+\frac{8}{3}\right)=4\end{aligned}$
