I've come this far as to combine both functions in a graph:

f = Plot[4 - x^2, {x, -10, 10}]
g = Plot[-1 + 4 x, {x, -10, 10}]
Show[g, f, PlotRange -> All]

enter image description here

Solved the intersections:

sol = x /. NSolve[f == g, x, Reals]

{-5., 1.}

Next thing I would like to do is integrate and rotate the area between the intersects enclosed by the functions around the X axis and calculate the volume of the resulting rotational body. I'm fairly new to Mathematica and require some help to finish the plot.

EDIT: I have painted the area, so it is clear which area is meant to be revolved: enter image description here

    I'm not sure what you mean by "rotate the region". Do you want to create a solid of revolution using the region between the two curves? If yes, which axis are you rotating around? – Szabolcs Sep 09 '17 at 19:04

  • I think you want 4 - x^2 rather than 4 - x. 2) What line in 3D space to want as the axis of revolution?

  • @Szabolcs around the X axis. I mean the Area, the 2 functions are enclosing between the intersections. Do you have an idea how to plot this? – BlkPengu Sep 09 '17 at 22:03
