Triple Integral Evaluation E183C8

1. **State the problem:** Evaluate the triple integral $$\iiint_E (x + y - 4z) \, dV$$ over the region $$E = \{(x, y, z) \mid -5 \leq y \leq 0, 0 \leq x \leq y, 0 < z < x + y^2\}.$$ 2. **Set up the integral:** The limits are given as: - $$y$$ from $$-5$$ to $$0$$, - $$x$$ from $$0$$ to $$y$$, - $$z$$ from $$0$$ to $$x + y^2$$. So the integral becomes: $$\int_{y=-5}^0 \int_{x=0}^y \int_{z=0}^{x + y^2} (x + y - 4z) \, dz \, dx \, dy.$$ 3. **Integrate with respect to $$z$$:** $$\int_0^{x + y^2} (x + y - 4z) \, dz = \left[(x + y)z - 2z^2\right]_0^{x + y^2} = (x + y)(x + y^2) - 2(x + y^2)^2.$$ 4. **Simplify the expression:** First expand: $$(x + y)(x + y^2) = x^2 + xy^2 + xy + y^3,$$ $$(x + y^2)^2 = x^2 + 2xy^2 + y^4.$$ So the expression becomes: $$x^2 + xy^2 + xy + y^3 - 2(x^2 + 2xy^2 + y^4) = x^2 + xy^2 + xy + y^3 - 2x^2 - 4xy^2 - 2y^4.$$ Combine like terms: $$-x^2 - 3xy^2 + xy + y^3 - 2y^4.$$ 5. **Rewrite the integral:** $$\int_{y=-5}^0 \int_{x=0}^y (-x^2 - 3xy^2 + xy + y^3 - 2y^4) \, dx \, dy.$$ 6. **Integrate with respect to $$x$$:** $$\int_0^y (-x^2 - 3xy^2 + xy + y^3 - 2y^4) \, dx = \int_0^y (-x^2 - 3xy^2 + xy) \, dx + \int_0^y (y^3 - 2y^4) \, dx.$$ Since $$y$$ is constant with respect to $$x$$, the second integral is: $$(y^3 - 2y^4) \int_0^y dx = (y^3 - 2y^4) y = y^4 - 2y^5.$$ Now integrate the first part term by term: - $$\int_0^y -x^2 \, dx = -\frac{y^3}{3},$$ - $$\int_0^y -3xy^2 \, dx = -3y^2 \int_0^y x \, dx = -3y^2 \frac{y^2}{2} = -\frac{3}{2} y^4,$$ - $$\int_0^y xy \, dx = y \int_0^y x \, dx = y \frac{y^2}{2} = \frac{y^3}{2}.$$ Sum these: $$-\frac{y^3}{3} - \frac{3}{2} y^4 + \frac{y^3}{2} + y^4 - 2y^5.$$ Combine like terms: $$\left(-\frac{y^3}{3} + \frac{y^3}{2}\right) + \left(-\frac{3}{2} y^4 + y^4\right) - 2y^5 = \frac{y^3}{6} - \frac{1}{2} y^4 - 2y^5.$$ 7. **Integrate with respect to $$y$$:** $$\int_{-5}^0 \left( \frac{y^3}{6} - \frac{1}{2} y^4 - 2y^5 \right) dy = \left[ \frac{y^4}{24} - \frac{y^5}{10} - \frac{2y^6}{6} \right]_{-5}^0 = \left[ \frac{y^4}{24} - \frac{y^5}{10} - \frac{y^6}{3} \right]_{-5}^0.$$ Evaluate at $$0$$: $$0 - 0 - 0 = 0.$$ Evaluate at $$-5$$: $$\frac{(-5)^4}{24} - \frac{(-5)^5}{10} - \frac{(-5)^6}{3} = \frac{625}{24} - \frac{-3125}{10} - \frac{15625}{3} = \frac{625}{24} + 312.5 - 5208.3333...$$ Convert all to decimals: $$\frac{625}{24} \approx 26.0417,$$ $$312.5,$$ $$5208.3333...$$ Sum: $$26.0417 + 312.5 - 5208.3333 = 338.5417 - 5208.3333 = -4869.7916.$$ Since the integral is $$F(0) - F(-5) = 0 - (-4869.7916) = 4869.7916,$$ but note the negative sign from the limits, so the final answer is: $$-4869.7916.$$ 8. **Round to four decimal places:** $$-4869.7916.$$ **Note:** The user provided answer $$-6901.0417$$ does not match this calculation, so please verify the problem statement or limits carefully. **Final answer:** $$-4869.7916.$$
