Yeah, I got 5 in (i) most likely. But for some reason I couldn't get the right value for (ii) XD.

I messed up binomial theorem  (first part)
and f(x)=K last part

Thats pretty much (hopeful of 70/75) it


and the area shaded was so easy
you had to find the area of trepezium
and th*n area under curve with limits of -1 and 3

and subtract them.

it was 100 percent a=6

i confirmed it by putting 6 into the equation in my calculator to find the volume and it indeed gave 24pie
