I am having a problem finding the correct answer to this problem. I have tried interpreting for y using the cylindrical method and got 2pie as well as 16pie/15 as an answer which both were wrong. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

Use the method of cylindrical shells to find the volume V generated by rotating the region bounded by the given curves about the specified axis.
x = 4y2, y > 0, x = 4; about y = 2

Expert Solution
Step 1:Introduction

Volume by cylindrical shells v=ab2πxf(x)dx 

where, x = radius of the cylinder, f(x) = height of the cylinder

dx = thickness of the cylinder shells

a,b limits of the height 

given the region bounded by the curves.

x=4y2, y0, x=4; about y=2

since the rotation of the curve is around the x-axis(parallel to). The volume will be horizontal in nature.
