Question
Find the centroid (x¯,y¯)(x¯,y¯) of the region bounded by:
y=5x^2+6x
y=0
x=0
x=6
I know the integral (think, at least) is from 0 to 6 and between the first and second equation given, but I missed this lecture and have no idea how to find the center of mass

google the topic and you will find many discussions and examples.
For a region of uniform density, the center of mass is the same as the centroid.
