Question 1117974: Let R be the region bounded by the curves y =root(x + 1 )and y = (x + 1)^2
. We will find the
volume of the solid obtained by rotating R about the horizontal line y = −1.
(a) Find the points of intersection of the two curves.
(b) Sketch a graph of a portion of the curves, the region R, and the line y = −1.
(c) Calculate the volume of the solid obtained by rotating R about the horizontal line y = −1.

Points of Intersection













Two real roots, and





Points of intersection are and

Sketch



Volume of rotated around





Just slightly north of 3 cubic units. Verification of the antiderivative is left as an exercise for the student.
