Problem

The region bounded by y=x2y = x^{2} and y=4y = 4 is revolved about the xx–axis. Which of the following definite integrals represents the volume of the resulting solid? (a) V=π∫−22(16−x4) dxV=\pi\displaystyle\int_{-2}^{2}\left(16-x^{4}\right)\,dx (b) V=π∫02(16−x4) dxV=\pi\displaystyle\int_{0}^{2}\left(16-x^{4}\right)\,dx (c) V=π∫−22(4−x2) dxV=\pi\displaystyle\int_{-2}^{2}\left(4-x^{2}\right)\,dx (d) V=2π∫04(4−x2) dxV=2\pi\displaystyle\int_{0}^{4}\left(4-x^{2}\right)\,dx
