Both x and y are limited to constant intervals, depend on z. You can solve the equation for
x to get

but the range of z depends on the value of y, so

z should vary in the innermost integral. Here’s a x = ± 9 − 3z , so the next integral is x=−√9−3z2 .

Finally, y varies from 0 to 3 − x. Therefore, the

13. Integrate f (x, y, z) = 8xyz over the region W
bounded by the cylinder y = x2 , the plane y+z = 9, If you choose a different order for the variables,
you’ll get a different looking integral.
and the xy-plane.
The parabolic cylinder y = x2 is cut off at the Math 131 Home Page at
bottom by the plane z = 0 and cut off at the top
http://math.clarku.edu/~djoyce/ma131/
by the diagonal plane y+z = 9. Note that these two
planes meet in the line in the xy-plane where y = 9.
That means the base of the solid is the parabolic
segment in that plane between x2 ≤ y ≤ 9. The
two curves y = 9 and y = x2 meet in that plane at
(x, y, z) = (±3, 9, 0).
There are various orders you can do the integration, and the limits are different for the different
orders, but the easiest is probably to take x to be
the outer variable, y the middle variable, and z the
inner variable. Then −3 ≤ x ≤ 3, x2 ≤ y ≤ 9, and
0 ≤ z ≤ 9 − y. That gives the integral

17. Integrate f (x, y, z) = (x + y) over the region
W bounded by the cylinder x2 + 3z 2 = 9 and the
planes y = 0 and x + y = 3.
First note that in the xz-plane, the equation
2
x + 3z 2 = 9 describes an ellipse where the extreme
values of x are ±3 while the extreme values of z
are ±1. The base of the elliptical cylinder is that
ellipse. The top of the region W is an elliptical slice
of the cylinder cut by the diagonal plane x + y = 3.
That diagonal ellipse meets the base at the point
(x, y, z) = (3, 0, 0).
You can choose either x or z to vary in the outer
integral.
Let’s take z. The the outer integral is
