The volume of the solid obtained by rotating the region bounded by the curves `y=2 - x/2, y=0, x=1,x=2` , about x axis, can be evaluated using the washer method, such that:
`V = int_a^b pi*(f^2(x) - g^2(x))dx`
Since the problem provides you the endpoints x=1,x=2, you may find the volume such that:
`V = int_1^2 pi*(2 - x/2 - 0)^2 dx`
`V = pi*int_1^2 (2 - x/2)^2dx`
`V = pi*int_1^2 (4 - 2x +...
The volume of the solid obtained by rotating the region bounded by the curves `y=2 - x/2, y=0, x=1,x=2` , about x axis, can be evaluated using the washer method, such that:
`V = int_a^b pi*(f^2(x) - g^2(x))dx`
Since the problem provides you the endpoints x=1,x=2, you may find the volume such that:
`V = int_1^2 pi*(2 - x/2 - 0)^2 dx`
`V = pi*int_1^2 (2 - x/2)^2dx`
`V = pi*int_1^2 (4 - 2x + x^2/4)dx `
`V = pi*(int_1^2 dx - 2int_1^2 x dx + (1/4)int_1^2 x^2 dx)`
`V = pi*(x - x^2 + x^3/12)|_1^2`
`V = pi*(-2 + 2^2 - 2^3/12 - 1 + 1^2 + 1^3/12)`
`V = pi*(2 - 8/12 + 1/12)`
`V = (17pi)/12`
Hence, evaluating the volume of the solid obtained by rotating the region bounded by the curves `y=2 - x/2, y=0, x=1,x=2` , about x axis , using the washer method, yields `V = (17pi)/12.`
