Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Finding the area of a region is the same as integrating over the range of the function and it can be rewritten into the following:

Solution:

This function is negative from , and positve everywhere else. Split this integral up into 2 pieces, multiplying  region by , and sum everything up.

In other words, find the sum of these two integrals.
