I broke up the integral like this . When I look at the graph of these two functions I notice that they overlap each other. Does that affect the area value in any way? I know the antiderivates will be even functions, so I think I only have to find the integral of the 1st and 4th quadrant and then just double it. If I do : I get 28, but that's not correct. I'm sure I'm just not understanding something about these graphs, that's what I ask if the overlap feature means I need to break up the endpoints of the integral differently?
