Thanks i I see it now. But what happened to the x^2 on the above line.

The solution in the image you posted derives a value for x2 in terms of y: \(\displaystyle x^2=\frac{y-3}{2}\) Then take that value and plug it into the integral: \(\displaystyle \displaystyle \text{Volume}_{y-axis}=\int _3^{21}\:\pi \:x^2dy=\pi \int _3^{21}\:\frac{y-3}{2}dy\)
