CorrectNot quiteAnswer B

Correct answer: B

Explanation

  1. They meet at x=±2x = \pm 2; the line lies above y=x24y = \frac{x^{2}}{4}: ∫−22(1−x24)dx\int_{-2}^{2} \left(1 - \frac{x^{2}}{4}\right)dx.

  2. 4−1612=834 - \frac{16}{12} = \frac{8}{3} square units.

Worth noting

43\frac{4}{3} is the area under the parabola, not the region above it.
