Graph function

that's the exact problem. if you mean book copy, i do not have it unfortunately.
as for 3, as far as i know you calculate the volume by Pi * integral of (function of the curve)^2, where integral is defined from the start point on x axis to the end point of the x axis of the curve. I go from 0 to 3 because i don't think they asked for infinity answer and because it's overall a different shape.
What is overall a different shape?? You can integrate or calculate volume for any shape (volume if you have symmetry). That is just what integration is for--to calculate areas, volumes, surface areas of many non-standard curves.

Look, if the problem said to find the volume of the enclosed area that is one problem, if it said to find the volume that is another problem. You need to decide which one you want to do. Before you do that, no one can help you.

What is the given answer?

I don't know. It just said volume.
 
This is the graph of [imath]y=-\frac{\sqrt{x}}{3}\cdot\left(x-3\right),\, x \in [0,3][/imath]

Rotating around the x-axis:

The Volume:
[math]V=\pi\int_{0}^{3}\left(-\frac{\sqrt{x}}{3}\cdot\left(x-3\right)\right)^2\,dx=\pi\int_{0}^{3} \frac{x\cdot(x-3)^2}{9}\,dx =\frac{3\pi}{4}[/math]
