The moments about the x- and y-axes are given by:
The center of mass is given by:
We are given:
Refer to the attached image, Plot of is blue in color. The curves intersect at
and
.
First let's find the area of the bounded region,
Now let's evaluate the moments about the x- and y-axes using the formulas stated above:
Now let's find the coordinates of the center of mass,
The center of mass is
