Problem

Consider the region enclosed by the graphs of y=xy = x and y=2−xy = 2 - x on the interval 0≤x≤20 \le x \le 2. This region is revolved about the horizontal line y=3y = 3 to create a solid of revolution. Determine the xx–coordinate at which the definite integral for the volume must be split, and in one sentence explain why the split is required.
