Answer: 4.5
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
First, find the points of intersection by solving the system.
y = x² + 2x + 4
y = x + 6
Solve by substitution:
x² + 2x + 4 = x + 6 ⇒ x² + x - 2 = 0 ⇒ (x + 2)(x - 1) = 0 ⇒ x = -2, x = 1
Now, integrate from x = -2 to x = 1
<em>the bottom of the integral is -2 </em>
=

=
= -3 + 1.5 + 6
= 4.5
