Accepted Answer

First, identify the region bounded by the curves: the parabola given by $$x = y$$^{2}$$ + 1 on $$the left and the vertical line $$x = 5 on $$the right. Determine the range of $$y by $$finding the points where these two curves intersect. Set $$y^{2} + 1 = 5$ and solve for y$. Since the solid is generated by revolving the region about the line x = 5$, consider the method of cylindrical shells or washers. Here, the axis of rotation is vertical, so using the shell method with respect to y$ is convenient. For the shell method, the radius of a shell at a given y$ is the distance from the line x = 5$ to the shell, which is 5 - x$. Since x$ varies from x$$ = $$y^{2} + 1$ to x = 5$, the shell radius is 5$$ - $$y^{2} - 1 = 4$$ - $$y^{2}. $$The height of the shell is the vertical thickness, which corresponds to the difference in $$x$$ values, but since we revolve around $$x=5$$, the height is the length along $$x$$ between the parabola and the line, which is $$5 - (y$$^{2}$$ + 1) = 4 - y$$^{2}$$. Set up the volume integral using the shell method formula: V = 2$$\pi \int_{a}^{b} (	ext{radius})(	ext{height}) \, dy$$. Here, the radius is the distance from the axis of rotation to the shell, and the height is the length of the shell. Determine the limits of integration a$ and b$ from the intersection points found in step 1. Write the integral explicitly as V = 2$$\pi \int_{-c}^{c} (	ext{radius})(	ext{height}) \, dy$$, where c$ is the positive y$-value of the intersection. Substitute the expressions for radius and height, simplify the integrand, and prepare to evaluate the integral to find the volume.
