Let RR be the region in the first quadrant bounded above by the curve y=2x−x2y=2x-x^{2} and below by the xx-axis. The region is revolved about the xx-axis, producing a three-dimensional solid. (a) Determine the xx-coordinates of the points where the graph of y=2x−x2y=2x-x^{2} intersects the xx-axis. (b) Write a definite integral whose value equals the volume of the solid generated by the rotation. (c) Evaluate the integral obtained in part (b) to find the exact volume in terms of π\pi.
