Surfing For Curves Helpful?

Ken asks…Find the volume of the solid obtained by rotating the region bounded by the given curves...?Find the volume of the solid obtained by rotating the region bounded by the given curves about the specified axis:
y=1/(x^6) , y=0 , x=1 , x=9 and rotate it about the y-axis

the process would be especially helpful, I want to understand how to do this!Nancy answers:Note that we are rotating a region bounded by a curve of the form y = f(x) about a vertical line (in this case, the y-axis); this
