help my final is friday and law school depends upon it.volume of revolution (VOR) for base of x^2 + y^2=25. Assume the square slcies are Peripindxular to the x axis.

voR for area between y=2x and y=2cos x revlved aroung the line y=-50

write definite integrals and evaluate

thanks in advance

Nope. Can't do it. At least TRY! People will help with a wrong attempt. They won't work your homework for you. And I'm not sure a failure to enter law school will elicit much sympathy.
 
There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
