This integral is supposed to give 15pi/16 but I keep getting 7pi/6. The integral is the volume between two spheres with 1 radius and 2 radius in the first eight of the 3d plane

  1. Ask your question and show the work you've done so far. If you've posted a screenshot of a question, specify which part you need help with.
  2. Wait patiently for a helper to come along.
  3. Once someone helps you, say thank you and close the thread with:
    +close
    
  4. Feel free to nominate the person for helper of the week in #helper-nominations
  5. Do not ping the mods, unless someone is breaking the rules.
  6. If you're happy with the help you got here, and the server overall, you can contribute financially as well:

@vivid tulip

#

7 pi / 6 is correct

#

we can double check by subtracting and dividing

#

$$ V_2-V_1 = \frac{4}{3}\pi (2^3 - 1^3) = \frac{56}{6}\pi $$
