Trace a solid bounded by planes xy, xz, yz given plane 2x+y+3z=2; find solid's volume

[bouhrassa]

Given the plane : 2x+y+3z=2, trace the solid bounded by the planes xy, xz, yz. Then, find the volume ?

I really don't get it...

I really don't get it...

Sketch the problem first.

Where does the plane intersect z-axis? (x = 0, y = 0, z = ??)

Where does the plane intersect y-axis? (x = 0, y = ??, z = 0)

Where does the plane intersect x-axis? (x = ??, y = 0, z = 0)

What are your thoughts?
