Find the shaded area is rotated around the y-axis. Find the volume of the solid formed.
This is the question. I don't understand how I keep getting this wrong! I used the formulas in the pic

i'm not sure if this is right.I'm don't know if I even used the right formulas..on the sheet the answer says its 3π/2

n? we have values though. For ur equation can't be write because its around the y axis for the volume (so needs to be dy)

Oh lol my idiot brain changed a nine to a four and forgot the square (need to sleep rip)

So its v = pi (from 0 to 4) (4-y-y^2/9)dy
= pi (4y-y^2/2-y^3/27) (from 0 to 4)
= pi (16-8-64/27)
= pi (152/27)(which still isn't right lol)

Volume = pi [integral(0 to 3) (y^2 /9)dy + integral(3 to 4) (4-y)dy]
= pi [y^3 / 27](0 to 3) + [4y - y^2 /2](3 to 4)]
= pi [27/27 - 0 + 16 - 16/2 - 12 + 9/2]
= 3pi/2 u^3

I'll skip the area for now but thank you so much :D
I don't have to stay up
Oh for the area do the same splitting thing from zero to three for the y=3x (which is a triangle), and three to four for the y= 4-xsqared
