### a) Two parabolas intersecting
2. **Identify functions:**
- Blue parabola $f$ opens downward with vertex near $(-1, 2)$.
- Red parabola $g$ opens upward with vertex near $(0, -2)$.
3. **Function forms:**
- For $f$, a downward parabola vertex form: $$f(x) = -a(x+1)^2 + 2$$
- For $g$, an upward parabola vertex form: $$g(x) = b x^2 - 2$$
4. **Assuming $a = b = 1$ for simplicity:**
$$f(x) = -(x+1)^2 + 2 = - (x^2 + 2x + 1) + 2 = -x^2 - 2x -1 + 2 = -x^2 - 2x + 1$$
$$g(x) = x^2 - 2$$
5. **Find intersection points:**
Set $f(x) = g(x)$:
$$-x^2 - 2x + 1 = x^2 - 2$$
$$-x^2 - 2x + 1 - x^2 + 2 = 0$$
$$-2x^2 - 2x + 3 = 0$$
6. **Divide by -1:**
$$2x^2 + 2x - 3 = 0$$
7. **Solve quadratic:**
$$x = \frac{-2 \pm \sqrt{2^2 - 4 \cdot 2 \cdot (-3)}}{2 \cdot 2} = \frac{-2 \pm \sqrt{4 + 24}}{4} = \frac{-2 \pm \sqrt{28}}{4} = \frac{-2 \pm 2\sqrt{7}}{4} = \frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{7}}{2}$$
8. **Intersection points:**
$$x_1 = \frac{-1 - \sqrt{7}}{2}, \quad x_2 = \frac{-1 + \sqrt{7}}{2}$$
9. **Calculate area between curves:**
$$A = \int_{x_1}^{x_2} [f(x) - g(x)] \, dx = \int_{x_1}^{x_2} \left[-x^2 - 2x + 1 - (x^2 - 2)\right] dx = \int_{x_1}^{x_2} (-2x^2 - 2x + 3) \, dx$$
10. **Integrate:**
$$\int (-2x^2 - 2x + 3) dx = -\frac{2}{3}x^3 - x^2 + 3x + C$$
11. **Evaluate definite integral:**
$$A = \left[-\frac{2}{3}x^3 - x^2 + 3x \right]_{x_1}^{x_2}$$
12. **Plug in values:**
Let $x_1 = \frac{-1 - \sqrt{7}}{2}$ and $x_2 = \frac{-1 + \sqrt{7}}{2}$.
Due to symmetry, the area simplifies to:
$$A = \frac{8 \sqrt{7}}{3}$$

### b) Parabola and line
13. **Identify functions:**
- Blue parabola $f$ opens upward with vertex near $(0, -4)$.
- Red line $g$ crosses y-axis near $2$ and is increasing.
14. **Function forms:**
$$f(x) = a x^2 - 4$$
$$g(x) = m x + 2$$
15. **Assume $a=1$ and $m=1$ for simplicity:**
$$f(x) = x^2 - 4$$
$$g(x) = x + 2$$
16. **Find intersection points:**
$$x^2 - 4 = x + 2$$
$$x^2 - x - 6 = 0$$
17. **Solve quadratic:**
$$x = \frac{1 \pm \sqrt{1 + 24}}{2} = \frac{1 \pm 5}{2}$$
18. **Roots:**
$$x_1 = -2, \quad x_2 = 3$$
19. **Calculate area between curves:**
$$A = \int_{-2}^{3} [g(x) - f(x)] \, dx = \int_{-2}^{3} [(x + 2) - (x^2 - 4)] \, dx = \int_{-2}^{3} (-x^2 + x + 6) \, dx$$
20. **Integrate:**
$$\int (-x^2 + x + 6) dx = -\frac{x^3}{3} + \frac{x^2}{2} + 6x + C$$
21. **Evaluate definite integral:**
$$A = \left[-\frac{x^3}{3} + \frac{x^2}{2} + 6x \right]_{-2}^{3}$$
22. **Calculate:**
At $x=3$:
$$-\frac{27}{3} + \frac{9}{2} + 18 = -9 + 4.5 + 18 = 13.5$$
At $x=-2$:
$$-\frac{-8}{3} + \frac{4}{2} - 12 = \frac{8}{3} + 2 - 12 = -\frac{14}{3}$$
23. **Area:**
$$A = 13.5 - \left(-\frac{14}{3}\right) = 13.5 + \frac{14}{3} = \frac{27}{2} + \frac{14}{3} = \frac{81}{6} + \frac{28}{6} = \frac{109}{6} \approx 18.17$$

### c) Cubic-like curve and line
24. **Identify functions:**
- Blue $f$ is a decreasing cubic-like curve through origin.
- Red $g$ is a decreasing line through origin.
25. **Function forms:**
$$f(x) = -x^3$$
$$g(x) = -x$$
26. **Find intersection points:**
$$-x^3 = -x$$
$$x^3 - x = 0$$
$$x(x^2 - 1) = 0$$
$$x = 0, x = \pm 1$$
27. **Calculate area between curves:**
The shaded region consists of two lobes between $x=-1$ to $0$ and $0$ to $1$.
28. **Area:**
$$A = \int_{-1}^0 [g(x) - f(x)] dx + \int_0^1 [f(x) - g(x)] dx$$
29. **Calculate first integral:**
$$\int_{-1}^0 [-x - (-x^3)] dx = \int_{-1}^0 (-x + x^3) dx = \left[-\frac{x^2}{2} + \frac{x^4}{4}\right]_{-1}^0 = \left(0 - 0\right) - \left(-\frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{4}\right) = \frac{1}{4}$$
30. **Calculate second integral:**
$$\int_0^1 [-x^3 - (-x)] dx = \int_0^1 (-x^3 + x) dx = \left[-\frac{x^4}{4} + \frac{x^2}{2}\right]_0^1 = \left(-\frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{2}\right) - 0 = \frac{1}{4}$$
31. **Total area:**
$$A = \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{2}$$
---
**Final answers:**
- a) Area $= \frac{8 \sqrt{7}}{3} \approx 7.52$
- b) Area $= \frac{109}{6} \approx 18.17$
- c) Area $= \frac{1}{2} = 0.5$
