find the volume of the pyramid formed in the octant by the plane 6x+10y+5z-30=0 and the coordinate axes
-----------
Step 1, find the intersections of the plane with the axes.
---
6x+10y+5z-30=0
6x+10y+5z = 30
For the x-axis, y = z = 0
--> x = 5
===========
For the y-axis, x = z = 0
--> y = 3
===========
For the z-axis, x = y = 0
--> z = 6
--------------
Can you do the rest?
