Volume of solid in first octant

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The volume of the solid in the first octant, bounded by the parabolic cylinder defined by the equation z = 25 - x² and the plane y = 2, is confirmed to be 710/3. This conclusion was reached through integration techniques specific to the geometry of the defined boundaries. The discussion emphasizes the importance of verifying calculations in mathematical problems involving three-dimensional solids.

Find the volume of the solid in the first octant bounded by the parabolic cylinder z = 25 − x2 and the plane y = 2.

I already solved it and got 710/3 as my answer, I just wanted to make sure its the right answer
