I have a few minor corrections in here! Towards the end of the video, I said -∫x-2 = -∫x-1/-1, but I meant -∫x-2 = -x-1/-1 = 1/x. My final answer is 81/5 units^2. I hope this was helpful!

Washer, disk, shell are methods for finding volume of solids of revolution. The problem asks for an area--was the reference to "use any method" part of the problem?08/04/21
