Problem

A region is bounded by the curve x=yx = \sqrt{y}, the yy-axis, and the lines y=0y=0 and y=9y=9. The region is revolved about the yy-axis to create a solid. Which of the following definite integrals represents the volume of the solid? (a) π∫09y dy\displaystyle \pi\int_{0}^{9} \sqrt{y}\,dy (b) 2π∫09y dy\displaystyle 2\pi\int_{0}^{9} y\,dy (c) π∫09(y)2 dy\displaystyle \pi\int_{0}^{9} (\sqrt{y})^{2}\,dy (d) π∫03x2 dx\displaystyle \pi\int_{0}^{3} x^{2}\,dx
