I'm having problems finding the limits for the follwing integration, can anyone help?

Find the volume bounded by x+2z=4 and 2y+z=2 with x,y and z>=0
 
Physics news on Phys.org
I think the following limits apply but can't find the upper one for z, or in which order they should go.

x: 0 -> 4-2z
y: 0 -> 1-0.5z
z: 0 -> ?
 
It seems like if you pick any z>=0, you can find x,y that satisfy the boundary condiitions. Hence, z should be between 0 and \infty

There are five boundary conditions:
  1. x+2z<=4
  2. 2y+z<=2
  3. x>=0
  4. y>=0
  5. z>=0

Picking a value for z beyond some finite limit will not work.
 
So z <= 2!

Thank you so much.

Thread 'Use greedy vertex coloring algorithm to prove the upper bound of χ'
Hi! I am struggling with the exercise I mentioned under "Homework statement". The exercise is about a specific "greedy vertex coloring algorithm". One definition (which matches what my book uses) can be found here: https://people.cs.uchicago.edu/~laci/HANDOUTS/greedycoloring.pdf Here is also a screenshot of the relevant parts of the linked PDF, i.e. the def. of the algorithm: Sadly I don't have much to show as far as a solution attempt goes, as I am stuck on how to proceed. I thought...
