Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\sqrt{-x+4} = x - 4 ( square both sides )

- x  4 = (x - 4)² ← expand

- x + 4 = x² - 8x + 16 ( subtract - x + 4 from both sides )

0 = x² - 7x + 12 ← in standard form

0 = (x - 3)(x - 4) ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 3 = 0 ⇒ x = 3

x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4

As a check

Substitute these values into the equation and if both sides are equal then they are the solutions

x = 3 : \sqrt{-3+4} = \sqrt{1} = 1

right side = 3 - 4 = - 1

left side ≠ right side ⇒ extraneous solution

x = 4 : \sqrt{-4+4} = 0 and right side = 4 - 4 = 0

left side = right side ⇒ x = 4 is the solution

lord [1]
Using washers, the volume is given by

\displaystyle\pi\int_{x=1}^{x=e}((1+3)^2-(\ln x+3)^2)\,\mathrm dx
=\displaystyle\pi\int_{x=1}^{x=e}(7-6\ln x-(\ln x)^2)\,\mathrm dx
