We were working on finding the area between these three functions in class:
$$y=\sqrt{32x}$$ $$y=4-6x$$ $$y=x^2$$ My question is, is it possible to rotate the coordinate plane so that the x axis matches the linear line of y=4-6x? Would doing this make the integration more or less difficult?

The reason I ask is that you can do something "similar" to this when analyzing the forces acting on an object at rest on an inclined plane.
