Find the area of the region determined by the inequalities and
Please graph this ....
You'll find that you have a rectangle.
One point of intersection of the two graphs is the point (-2.5, 2.5).
Use the distance formula to find the distance from the origin to this point. This will be one of the sides of the rectangle.
Another point of intersection is the point (1.5, 1.5).
Use the distance formula to find the distance from the origin to this point. This will be another side of the rectangle.
Knowing the two sides of the rectangle, you can find the area ...
