Problem

A solid has base region SS in the first quadrant bounded above by the piecewise curve $y = \begin{cases} x, & 0\le x\le 1, \sqrt{x}, & 1< x\le 4 \end{cases}$ and below by the xx-axis. Cross sections taken perpendicular to the xx-axis are rectangles whose height is three times their base width. Find the exact volume of the solid.
