<p>i have a calculus quiz tommorrow and I am severely struggling with solving for the volume of shapes formed by intersecting graphs. I was not in class on friday when we learned it (this equals suicide for me since I am not an awesome math student).</p>

<p>Please explain how this porblem works:</p>

<p>find the volume of the solid generated by revolving the region bounded by </p>

<p>y=x, y=0, y=4, x=6</p>

<p>about the line x=6.</p>

<p>thanks in advance for taking the time to help me out here.</p>

<p>It's hard to explain it; you need to see it. Do you have a calc. book? Use that.</p>

<p>The equations are just the dimensions.. and you're spinning this figure (made by the dimensions) about the line x=6.</p>

<p>Next, you need to learn the methods of calculating volume..</p>
