y = 4 - x2 + 18x - 81 = 18x - x2 - 77 = (7 - x)(x - 11) = 0; x = 7 or x = 11
V = 2π∫711x(18x - x2 - 77)dx = 2π(6x3 - x4/4 - 77x2/2)711 = 192π

In the first quadrant means also bounded by the x-axis.
Using shell method:
V = 2π∫baxf(x)dx
4-(x-9)2=0 --> -x2+18x-77 =0 --> x = 7,11
V = 2π∫117x( -x2+18x-77)dx = 2π∫117 -x3+18x2-77x dx = 2π[-x4/4+6x3-77x/2]117=192π

Hi,
curve about the y-axis.
y=4-(x-9)^2
shell method:
1- solve y = 0 ====> 4-(x-9)^2 = 0 =====> x= 7 & x= 11
2- V = 2Π ∫ x f(x) dx ======> V = 2Π ∫ x[ 4-(x-9)^2 ]dx
3- V = 2Π ∫ x [ 4 - x^2 +18x -81 ]dx
4- V = 2Π ∫ [4x - x^3 +18x2 - 81x ]dx now it is easy by taking integral of any term
5- V = 2Π ( 2x2 -1/4 x4 +6x3- 81/2 x2 ) now by replacing x= 7 and x= 11 and subtract you can find the volume
I hope it is useful,

The given line intersects the x axis at the points x=7 and x=11. So we need to revolve that figure around y axis and find it volume.
The Volume will be
V= π∫711[(f(x)]2dx = π∫711 (4-(9-x)2)2dy = 2 π∫711 (4-(9-x)2)2(9-x)cx = (128/3) π
