Compare a modulus integral with signed integrals

Without using a calculator, identify which of the following definite integral(s) has a different value. Refer to the sketch from Example 9: (a) ∫−20∣x2−4∣ dx\int_{-2}^0|x^2-4|\,dx, (b) ∫−20(x2−4) dx\int_{-2}^0(x^2-4)\,dx, (c) −∫−20(x2−4) dx-\int_{-2}^0(x^2-4)\,dx. You can check your own answer using the graphing calculator.
