Integral Issue (Y-Axis) Solve for Volume :)

Homework Statement


[PLAIN]http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/7091/unled4mo.jpg

Homework Equations



V=
pi [itex]\int[/itex] [itex]^{18}_{0}[/itex] 1/4 (19-y)[itex]^{2}[/itex]dy

The Attempt at a Solution



I've tried it a couple times, gotten 243/2 Pi




Any and all help would be much appreciated :)

I'm really having trouble integrating the equation above, I am absolutely terrible with integrals so any help with that would be ideal

There are two ways to integrate this (I'm not sure what would be easier for you). Try foiling out your expression or using a substitution. Can you be more specific as to what you are having trouble with?

You will certainly need to recall the power antidifferentiation rule for this problem.
