Finding volume of the region enclosed by x 2 + y 2 6 x = 0 , z = 36 x 2 y 2
z = 0
I'm trying to calculate the volume of the region enclosed by the cylinder x 2 + y 2 6 x = 0, the semicircle z = 36 x 2 y 2 and the plane z = 0. I tried moving the region towards -x so that the cylinder has it's center at zero. I ended up using these equations and proposing this integral using cylindrical coordinates:
New cylinder x 2 + y 2 = 9
New semicircle z = 36 ( x + 3 ) 2 y 2
0 2 π 0 3 0 36 ( r c o s ( θ ) + 3 ) 2 ( r s i n ( θ ) ) 2 r d z d r d θ
For some reason I can't solve it this way and I don't know what am I doing wrong.

Explanation:
If you take cylindrical coordinates x = r cos θ , y = r sin θ , z = z with Jacobian J = r, then you'll have 0 2 π 0 6 cos θ 0 36 r 2 r d θ d r d z
