"Find the volume of the solid that is generated when the region in the fourth quadrant bounded by y=-x^2, y=-4, and x=0 is revolved about the line y=2."
I first drew the graph y=-x^2 and y=4 for a visual. My first instinct was to shift y=-x^2 up to the line y=2 as it's the same principal as revolving around the x-axis but I assume that would be incorrect off the bat. The thought was to possibly try the washer method and to use x+2 as the inside radius but that doesn't seem logical. I'm simply stuck from the get go. Any help would be fantastic.
