Answer

The region bounded by $y= x^4 ,\ \ y=0 ,\ \ x= 0,\ \ x=3 $ rotates about $y-$axis

Work Step by Step

Given $$ \int_0^3 2 \pi x^5 d x $$ Rewrite the integral as the following $$ \int_0^3 2 \pi x(x^4) d x $$ Compare with $$V= \int_a^b 2\pi r(x) h(x)dx$$ Here $r(x)= x,\ \ h(x)= x^4$. This represents the volume of the generated solid when the region bounded by $$y= x^4 ,\ \ y=0 ,\ \ x= 0,\ \ x=3 $$ rotates about $y-$axis
