[Math] Volume of parabolic cylinder bound by plane

calculusmultivariable-calculus

Make a sketch of the solid in the first octant bounded by the plane

$x + y = 1$

and the parabolic cylinder

$x^{2} + z = 1$

Calculate the volume of the solid..

I have no idea where to even start 🙁

As can be seen from the plot below, we have a flat triangle with $(0,0),(0,1),(1,0)$ on $xy-$plane. So the required limits here is as $$x|_0^1,y|_0^{1-x},z|_0^{1-x^2}$$ enter image description here
