Can someone help me with this?
Find the volume V of the solid S bounded by the three coordinate planes, bounded above
by the plane x+ y+ z = 2, and bounded below by the plane z = x+ y.
x + y + z = 2
z = x + y
[itex]\int_{0}^{2}\int_{-x}^{2-x}\int_{x+y}^{2-y-x}dzdydx[/itex]
So I used the above triple integral and got -4(did it twice), wolfram-alpha's calculator gives me 0 and the textbook answer is 1/3
So obviously I did something wrong in the triple integral and in identifying the limits.
But I just want to know the right limits for the above question as I have problems identifying them (I drew traces(attached) on the planes but not sure if the region's right)
