Use the transformation u=x+y, v=3x-2y to find the area of the region enclosed by x+y=1, x+y=2, 3x-2y=2, 3x-2y=5. So far I have that the Jacobian is 5, but I don't understand how to find the limits of integration and I don't know what to integrate.

Look at those graphs carefully. In the transformed system those are u = 1, u = 2 , v = 2 and v = 5.

What does that look like?

What would be your limits?
 
Here is the region. The balck square is the original and the red one is the transformation.
