15.4.20 volumn via triple integrals

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on calculating the volume of a region in the first octant bounded by the coordinate planes and the surface defined by the equation z=4-x²-y. The triple integral is established as V=∭E dzdydx, with specific limits for each variable: 0 ≤ z ≤ 4-x²-y, 0 ≤ y ≤ 4-x², and 0 ≤ x ≤ 2. The participants confirm the correctness of the approach and suggest exploring alternative orders of integration, specifically dydzdx and dydxdz.

View attachment 8112
$$z=4-x^2-y$$
$\textit{From the given equation we get}$
\begin{align*}\displaystyle
&0 \le z \le 4-x^2-y\\
&0 \le y \le 4-x^2\\
&0 \le x \le z
\end{align*}
$\textit{Thus the triple Integral results:}$
\begin{align*}\displaystyle
V&=\iiint\limits_{E} \, dzdyd
\quad =\int_{0}^{2}
\int_{0}^{4-x^2}
\int_{0}^{4-x^2-y}
\, dzdydx
\end{align*}
So just seeing if this is going the right direction

It's a good thing you didn't need that equation on the upper left.

Okay, now do it all over dydzdx and dydxdz.
