Find the area of the region bounded by the curves x=y^3 and x=y^2 in matlab

syms x y
fimplicit([x == y^3, x == y^2], [-1 10])
Which of the two areas? The right-hand one is obviously unbounded, but your instructions do not say to do only the other area.
And please explain how your instructions will solve the question asked 10 years ago by Ejay Kasai ??

In your case:
syms x
x0 = eval(solve('x^2 -2*x'));
x = linspace(x0(1),x0(2),100);
y1 = x.^2;
y2 = 2*x;
fill([x x(end:-1:1)],[y1 y2(end:-1:1)],'r')
hold on
plot(x,y1,x,y2,'LineWidth',2)
grid on
a = trapz(x,y2)-trapz(x,y1);
Instead of:
syms x
x0 = eval(solve('x^2 -2*x'));
You can use:
x0(1) = fzero('x.^2 -2*x',1);
x0(2) = fzero('x.^2 -2*x',1.5);

The expression Grzegorz gave, a = trapz(x,y2)-trapz(x,y1) *is* the code to evaluate the area between the two curves. This is elementary calculus: the area between two curves is the difference between their integrals. trapz() calculates numeric integrals.
