Find the volume of the solid formed by rotating about the $x$-axis

Find the volume of the solid formed by rotating the region enclosed by the curves $y=(e^ x) + 2$, $y=0$ , $x=0$, and $x=0.7$ about the $x$-axis



I set up the equations as follows using the washer method. I'm not sure if I'm setting it up right or using the correct method.



$$int_0^{0.7} pi (e^x+2)^2dx$$

    The setup is correct. To finish, expand $(e^x+2)^2$ and integrate.

Your equation is correct.
$$begin{align*}
A & = pi int_0^{0.7} (e^x + 2)^2 dx = pi left( int_0^{0.7} e^{2x} dx + 4 int_0^{0.7} e^x dx + 4cdot0.7 right)\
& = pi left( frac12 int_0^{1.4} e^x dx + int_0^{0.7} e^x dx + 2.8right)\
& = pi left( frac12 e^{1.4} + e^{0.7} + 2.8 right) \
& approx 21.4927ldots

    It might be me, but are you sure you can make the simplification of taking $e^{2x}$ out to the range over which you're integrating? As if you leave it in and integrate, it integrates to $e^2x^2$ so you wouldn't simply be evaluating $e^x$ between $0$ and $1.4$. I'm not entirely sure that gives the same answer.

Your setting up was all correct. However you can conveniently integrate with symbols and get on with integration to go to numerical work in the last stages of calculation by plugging in constants. Also bring out constants to LHS at the earliest, else that keeps dragging on till the end.



$$begin{align*}
A/pi & = int_0^{a} (e^x + c)^2 dx = int_0^{a} e^{2x} dx + 2c int_0^{a} e^x dx + c^2 a\
& = frac12 ( e^{2a}-1) + 2c(e^{a}-1) dx + ac^2.\

      Your setting up was all correct. However you can conveniently integrate with symbols and get on with integration to go to numerical work in the last stages of calculation by plugging in constants. Also bring out constants to LHS at the earliest, else that keeps dragging on till the end.



      $$begin{align*}
      A/pi & = int_0^{a} (e^x + c)^2 dx = int_0^{a} e^{2x} dx + 2c int_0^{a} e^x dx + c^2 a\
      & = frac12 ( e^{2a}-1) + 2c(e^{a}-1) dx + ac^2.\

          Your setting up was all correct. However you can conveniently integrate with symbols and get on with integration to go to numerical work in the last stages of calculation by plugging in constants. Also bring out constants to LHS at the earliest, else that keeps dragging on till the end.



          $$begin{align*}
          A/pi & = int_0^{a} (e^x + c)^2 dx = int_0^{a} e^{2x} dx + 2c int_0^{a} e^x dx + c^2 a\
          & = frac12 ( e^{2a}-1) + 2c(e^{a}-1) dx + ac^2.\
          end{align*}$$
