Find the volume of the solid obtained by rotating the region underneath the graph of f(x)=(x)/(sqrt(x^3+5)), about the y-axis over the interval [1, 10].
which method do you want to use to do this?
using the shell method you would integrate from a to be over 2 pi (shell radius) (shell height) dx.
\[\int\limits_{1}^{10}2\pi*(x)(\frac{ x }{ x^3 }+5)\]
pull the 2 pi out front and distribute the x. then simplify
i can do it from here
woo okay. good luck!
i integrated it and got 1570
\[\int\limits\limits_{1}^{10}2\pi*(x)\frac{ x }{ \sqrt{x^3+5} }dx\]
yeah?
\[2\pi \int\limits_{1}^{10}\frac{ x^2 }{(x^3+5)^{1/2} }dx\]
this looks nasty so lets look for a substitution. let u = x^3+5... du = 3x^2 dx...1/3 du = x^2 dx
your answer was not correct.. why i am still explaining.
your answer is only of by 1400+
answer is 122, i see what i did wrong.
