Answer:

Solution in explanation given below.

Explanation:

Consider a region R revolved about the x-axis

The volume of the resulting solid using the shell method is given by:

V =
\int\limits^d_c {2\pi y[p(y) - q(y)]dy }

where p(y) ≥ q(y) for c ≤ y ≤ d

Hence, the solutions of the answers are filled with x and y respectively.
