Answer

$4$

Work Step by Step

Rewrite the equations as functions of y: $\left[\begin{array}{lll} x-y^{2}=0 & ... & x+2y^{2}=3\\ x=y^{2} & & x=3-2y^{2}\\ & & \end{array}\right]$ Graphing the given equations, we find the intersections or we solve the equation $f(y)=g(y), $ where $ f(y)=3-2y^{2} \quad$ (the curve on the right side) and $ g(y)=y^{2}\quad$ (the curve on the left). When $y\in[c,d]=[-1,1]$, the area between the graphs is $A=\displaystyle \int_{c}^{d} [f(y)-g(y)]dy=\displaystyle \int_{-1}^{1}[3-2y^{2}-(y^{2})]dy$ $=\displaystyle \int_{-1}^{1}[3-3y^{2}]dy$ $=\left[3y-y^{3} \right]_{-1}^{1}$ $=3(1+1)-(1+1)$ $=4$
