Let's break down the problem step by step:
**Given:**
- Region \( R \) in the first quadrant bounded by:
- \( y = x^2 \)
- \( y = 6 - x \)
- \( x = 0 \)
- We are to **set up the integral** (do not solve, just set up) to find the **volume** generated when \( R \) is rotated about the **y-axis**.
---
### **Step 1: Find the bounds of integration (intersection points)**
Set \( y = x^2 \) and \( y = 6 - x \):
\[
x^2 = 6 - x \implies x^2 + x - 6 = 0
\]
\[
(x + 3)(x - 2) = 0
\]
So, \( x = -3 \) or \( x = 2 \).
Since we are in the **first quadrant** (\( x \geq 0 \)), use \( x = 0 \) and \( x = 2 \).
---
### **Step 2: Express in terms of \( x \) (method of shells)**
For rotation about the **y-axis**, use the **shell method**:
- Height of shell: \( (6-x) - (x^2) \)
- Radius of shell: \( x \)
- Thickness: \( dx \)
Volume of shell: \( 2\pi x \left[(6-x) - x^2 \right] dx \)
---
### **Step 3: Set up the integral**
Bounds: \( x = 0 \) to \( x = 2 \)
\[
V = \int_{x=0}^{x=2} 2\pi x \left[(6-x) - x^2\right] dx
\]
---
### **Final Answer (integral setup):**
\[
\boxed{
V = \int_{0}^{2} 2\pi x \left[ (6-x) - x^2 \right] dx
}
\]
This is the required integral to find the volume when the region \( R \) is rotated about the y-axis.
