Find the volume of the solid of revolution formed by revolvi
Find the volume of the solid of revolution formed by revolving the region bounded by f(x)-3x2 and g(x) = 5X + 2 about the x-axis
Solution
First you need to find the oints of intersection:
3x^2 = 5x+2
3x^2 - 5x - 2 = 0
(3x+1)(x-2) = 0
So the points of intersection is: x = -1/3 , 2
So the volume is:
V = * int (5x+2)2 - (3x2)2 dx (x from -1/3 to 2) =
((5x+2)3/15 - 9/5 x5) (-1/3 < x < 2) =
((5*2+2)3/15 - 9/5 * 25) - ((5/3+2)3/15 - 9/5 * (5/3)5) =
31372/405
243.353
