Question:

Find the volume of the solid in the first octant bounded by the cylinder {eq}z=4-x^2 {/eq} and the plane {eq}y=5 {/eq}

Volume:

When working with multiple integrals, double integrals are generally used to determine the surface area and triple integrals are used to determine the volume of the given solid. Also, in the first octant, {eq}x \geq 0\ \text{and}\ y \geq 0 {/eq}
