    Find the derivative of function with respect to x

    Find the derivative of function with respect to x y = sin^-1 (x-1/x+1) Steps I took: = sin(x-1/x+1)^-1 u = sin(x-1/x+1) u' = cos u * u' u = x-1/x+1 u' = t'b - tb'/b^2 t = x-1 b = x+1 t' = 1 b' = 1 b^2 = (x+1)(x+1) = x^2+2x+1 u' = (1)(x+1) - (x-1)(1)/x^2+2x+1 u' = x+1-x-1 /...

    Another volume of revolution around x axis

    I guess that I am not sure how to do that. for example, ∫(2)dx = 2x + C but how does that apply here? the answer doesn't have any + in it.
