calculus problem- volume through integration

Use the Shell Method to compute the volume of the solids obtained by rotating the region enclosed by the graphs of the functions y=x^2, y=8-x^2 and to the right of x=1.5 about the y-axis.

What have you done so far, and what's going wrong? This looks like a typical university-level Calculus problem, so there will be lots of online resources e.g. this. No-one's going to just do this for you, it's against the charter.

From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch’.
