#V=(72pi)/5#

#x_1=y^2#
#x_2=y+2#

#V=pi int_(y_1)^(y_2) (x_2^2-x_1^2)dy#

#y_1,y_2=?#
#x_1=x_2#
#y^2=y+2#
#y^2-y-2=0#
#y^2-y-2=y^2-2y+y-2=y(y-2)+y-2=(y-2)(y+1)=0#

#y_1=-1, y_2=2#

#V=pi int_(-1)^(2) ((y+2)^2-(y^2)^2)dy#

#V=pi int_(-1)^(2) (y^2+4y+4-y^4)dy#

#V=pi(y^3/3+2y^2+4y-y^5/5)|_-1^2#

#V=pi(8/3+8+8-32/5+1/3-2+4-1/5)#

#V=(72pi)/5#
