This isn't really what we're looking for.
This will give us the "integral" of ƒ for -2 ≤ x ≤ 2.
We're looking for area.
Area =

Another way of doing this would be:
How would we do this on a calculator?
5. What about finding the area between two curves, such as ƒ and g below?
Is this the right thing to do?
What goes here?
How do we figure that out?
