Use the shell method to find the volume of the solid generated by revolving the region described about the y-axis:

Shell formula: V=∫2π(shell radius)(shell height)dx = ∫2πx f(x)dx a≤x≤b

The shaded region is bounded by the y axis from the point (0,2) to (0.0) and the x axis from (0.0 ) to (2, 0)

y=1-x/2
