To find the volume of the solid formed by drilling a hole with radius 1 along the axis of the right circular cone with radius 6 and height 9, we can use the shell method. When we visualize this scenario, the cone's equation can be derived from its geometry. The cone extends from the origin to the point (6, 9) and has a linear equation representing its slant height. The equation of the line forming the side of the cone is given by \( y = \frac{3}{2} x \) since the height of the cone corresponds to a change in x from 0 to 6 and y from 0 to 9. We will set up the volume integral, integrating with respect to y. The limits of integration will be from \( y = 0 \) to \( y = 9 \). The radius of each cylindrical shell is given by \( x = y \cdot \frac{4}{3} \) (solving for \( x \) in terms of \( y \)), while the height of the shell (the width of the hole subtracted from the cone's corresponding shell) will be \( 6 - 1 = 5\). So, the integral for the volume \( V \) of the drilled cone using the shell method can be set up as follows: \[ V = 2 \pi \int_0^9 (y \cdot 5) \cdot \left(\frac{4}{3} y\right) dy \] This integral gives us the desired volume by subtracting the volume of the hole from the volume of the cone. Fill in the integral with the appropriate values as specified above.
