For the region bounded by , , , and revolved  about the line , we may apply Washer method for the integral application for the volume of a solid.


 The formula for the Washer Method  is:



or



where f as function of the outer radius 


         g as a function of the inner radius


To determine which form we use, we consider the horizontal rectangular strip representation that is perpendicular to the axis of rotation as shown on the attached image. The given strip  has a thickness of " " which is our clue to use the formula:



For each radius, we follow the . We have since it a distance between the axis of rotation and each boundary graph.


For the inner radius, we have: simplified to


Note: for the inner radius is based from rearrange into


For the outer radius, we have:  simplified to .


Then the boundary values of y  is and .


Then the integral will be: 



Expand using the FOIL method on:


.


The integral becomes: 



Simplify:




Apply basic integration property:




For the integration of   , we apply basic integration property: .


 For the integration of and  , we apply the Power rule for integration:   .




Apply the definite integral formula: .

How are race, gender, and class addressed in Oliver Optic's Rich and Humble?

While class does play a role in Rich and Humble , race and class aren't addressed by William Taylor Adams (Oliver Opic's real name) ...
