Please answer and show the complete solution for Item IV.

Let S be the surface with equation given by 4x2- 9y= 9(z+ 4).
I. Find an equation of the trace of S on each of the coordinate planes and on the planes x = ±3√ 2. Determine if each trace is empty, a point, a (pair of) line(s), a parabola, an ellipse, or a hyperbola.
II. What type of quadric surface is S?
III. Using the traces obtained in I, provide a hand-drawn sketch of S. Label all important points (e.g. vertices) found on each trace.
IV. View as a surface of revolution. Find an equation of a generating curve on the xy-plane which, if revolved about the x-axis, will result to S.
