Step 2: Determine the radius from a cross section.
r=y−(−3)=y+ 3 =ex+ 3
Step 3: Set up an integral.

Step 4: Evaluate the integral.
Enter

= 13. 7383 π.
Thus, the volume of the solid is approximately 13. 7383 π.

The Washer Method
The volume of a solid (with a hole in the middle) generated by revolving a region bounded
by 2 curves.
