C, because the independent variable would be the variable that is changing -- in this case, the temperature. The dependent variable changes according to the independent variable, and is called so because it depends on the temperature of the pool.
The disk method will only involve a single integral. I've attached a sketch of the bounded region (in red) and one such disk made by revolving it around the y-axis.
Such a disk has radius x = 1/y and height/thickness ∆y, so that the volume of one such disk is
π (radius) (height) = π (1/y)² ∆y = π/y² ∆y
and the volume of a stack of n such disks is

where
is a point sampled from the interval [1, 5].
As we refine the solid by adding increasingly more, increasingly thinner disks, so that ∆y converges to 0, the sum converges to a definite integral that gives the exact volume V,


D = sqrt((0-18)^2 + (-5--10)^2)
D= sqrt ((-18)^2 + (5)^2)
D= sqrt( 324 + 25)
D= sqrt ( 349)
D = 18.7
