The region UU is enclosed by the curve y=ln⁡ ⁣(x+1)y=\ln\!(x+1), the xx-axis, and the vertical lines x=0x=0 and x=3x=3. The region is revolved about the horizontal line y=4y=4. (a) For 0≤x≤30\le x\le3, express the distances from the line y=4y=4 to the top and bottom of the region as functions of xx. (b) Write a definite integral that represents the volume of the solid obtained from the revolution. (c) Evaluate the integral in part (b) to three decimal places.
