This problem seems so easy but idk what I'm doing (Calculus)
This is me putting my rotation line around x=5, and so it creates a sort of washer shape I assume? Where we take distance from top function to axis of rotation as our big radius and distance from bottom function to axis of rotation as our little radius?
So then \[V=\int\limits_{-1}^{1}(\pi*(x^2+5)^2-\pi*(4)^2)dx\] ??? I used -1 and 1 as x-bounds and formula for a washer shape object is \[\pi*R^2-\pi*r^2\]
distance from x^2 to line 5 I represented as x^2+5 and distance from the line y=5 to y=1 I have as 4

@AZ i understand this but i dont want to give you the wrong steps I have a weird way of calculating things in my head.....:)
@kxylaaaaa i know your very reliable with calc help out
\[volume=\pi \int\limits_{-1}^{1}[(5-x^2)^2-4^2]dx\] \[=\pi \int\limits_{-1}^{1}[25+x^4-10x^2-16]dx\] if we change x to -x function remains the same. \[volume=2 \pi \int\limits_{0}^{1}(9+x^4-10x^2)dx\] \[=2 \pi (9x+\frac{ x^5 }{ 5 }-\frac{ 10x^3 }{ 3 })|x ~from 0 \rightarrow 2\] \[=2 \pi(9+\frac{ 1 }{ 5 }-\frac{ 10 }{ 3 })\] \[=2 \pi(9-\frac{ 47 }{ 15 })\] \[=2 \pi (\frac{ 135-47 }{ 15 })\] \[=2\pi \times \frac{ 88 }{ 15 }\] \[=\frac{ 176 \pi }{ 15 }\] \[\approx36.8613538021\]
So 5-x^2 and not (x^2)+5 for distance, true, the distance at most can only be 5 so (x^2)+5 isn't correct, thanks Surjithayer

correction x varies from 0 to 1 and not 0 to 2
