"y = x^2, y = 8 \u2212 x^2,and \\ x = 1\/2" about the y-axis.


Here is how set up the integral:


"2 \\pi \\int [-2,2] (1\/2 - x)[(8-x^2)- (x^2)]dx"


Since x=1/2 is greater than a (a= -2), I subtracted x from 1/2.


Also, since the graph of"y= 8- x^2" is above the graph of"y=x^2," Isubtracted x^2 from 8-x^2.
