The equation f(x) =x^3 + 3x is drawn on a graph between x = 0 and x = 2. The graph is then rotated around the x axis by 2π to form a solid. What is the volume of this solid?

f(x) = x3 + 3x V = π ∫ (f(x)2) dx V = π ∫02 (x3 + 3x)(x3 + 3x) dx V = π ∫02 (x6 + 6x4 +9x2) dx V = π[x7/7 + 6x5/5 + 3x3] V = 2824/35
