we need the points of intersection  (1/x)=(1/x^2 ) ⇒ x≠0  x^2 −x=0  x(x−1)=0 ⇒ x=1  so we have only one common point in R:  I_1 = ((1),(1) )  there′s no such region  if we consider I_2 = ((∞),(0) )  we can try to calculate  ∫_1 ^∞ ((1/x)−(1/x^2 ))dx=[ln x+(1/x)]_1 ^∞ =ln ∞+(1/∞)−(ln 1+(1/1))=  =∞+0−(0+1)=∞  so no area exists
