Homework Statement

Find the volume of the solid bounded by the planes x = 0, y = 0, z = 0, and x + y + z = 9.

The Attempt at a Solution

After drawing out the picture with z=0 I have a line going from 0,9 to 9,0 bounded by the x and y-axis giving me a triangle.
Based on that I got the following domains.
0 <= x <= 9
0 <= y <= 9-x
Which I then use for the following double integral
\int^{9}_{0}\int^{9-x}_{0} 9 - x - y dy dx
After the first integration I get.
9y-(y²)/2-x
After plugging in the limits and simplifying I get 81/2-x^2-x
After integrating the above I get: 81/2x-x³/3-x²/2
and plugging and chugging gives me 81 which is wrong. So . . . did I do my domain wrong or it is an integration mistake?

Your setup is correct. Without seeing your steps in a readable form it's hard to tell you where you went wrong.

Your limits of integration look OK. I suspect you made an integration error or arithmetic mistake.

\int^{9}_{0}\int^{9-x}_{0} 9 - x - y~dy~dx

After integrating with respect to y, I get
\int_0^9 81/2 - 9x + x^2/2~dx

I get a value of 243.

I get a value of 243.

Should get (1/6)*9*9*9 = 243/2.

Oops! I lost my denominator of 2 when I integrated x^2/2.
