Which method would be most effective to find the volume of the solid formed by rotating the region bounded by and around the x-axis from to ?
Disk Method, as it is suitable for solids with no hole in the middle.
Washer Method, because it accommodates non-constant gap between curves.
Shell Method, since it simplifies computation for rotation around an axis parallel to shapes.
Cross-section Method, as it is often used for simple geometrical shapes.
What is necessary for correctly using the washer method with functions defined over an interval [a, b]?
They must alternately be increasing and decreasing over [a, b]
They can be discontinuous but still increasing over [a, b]
They must be continuous and non-negative over [a, b]
They should intersect at some point within [a, b]

To compute the volume of a solid obtained by rotating about the line , what method should be used when dealing with regions bound by curves such as those given by equations and ?
Washer method factoring shift leftwards adds constant inside integral expression accounting for new axis location.
Approximation using geometric figures like prisms or cylinders without considering exact curvature provided by graphs' equations.
Disk method assuming original coordinate axes thus ignoring horizontal translation required here.
Shell method preferring cylindrical surfaces aligned along rotation line but overlooks consistent gap between 'shells'.
