Figure 2 shows a sketch of the curve \(C\) with equation \(y = \frac{4}{x - 3}\), \(x \neq 3\).
The points \(A\) and \(B\) on the curve have \(x\)-coordinates \(3.25\) and \(5\) respectively.
- Write down the \(y\)-coordinates of \(A\) and \(B\). [1]
- Show that an equation of \(C\) is \(\frac{3y + 4}{y} = 0\), \(y \neq 0\). [1]
The shaded region \(R\) is bounded by \(C\), the \(y\)-axis and the lines through \(A\) and \(B\) parallel to the \(x\)-axis. The region \(R\) is rotated through \(360°\) about the \(y\)-axis to form a solid shape \(S\).
- Find the volume of \(S\), giving your answer in the form \(\pi (a + b \ln c)\), where \(a\), \(b\) and \(c\) are integers. [7]
The solid shape \(S\) is used to model a cooling tower. Given that 1 unit on each axis represents 3 metres,
- show that the volume of the tower is approximately \(15\,500\) m\(^3\). [2]
