Lol, funny username.

Answer 2

Where is the question?

Answer 3

Find the area between the curves, y= x - 1 & y^2 = 2x+6

Answer 4

So how to deal with y^2 = 2x+6

Answer 5

first find where they intersect at
so equate the two equations
x-1=sqrt(2x+6)

Answer 6

solving for x u get
(x-1)^2=2x+6
x^2+1-2x=2x+6
x^2-4x-5=0
x=-1 and x=5
